| Winner of the 2009 Golden Heart for Best Paranormal Romance for her manuscript FIRST GRAVE ON THE RIGHT, Darynda was born spinning tales of dashing damsels and heroes in distress for any unfortunate soul who happened by, annoying man and beast alike. After the Golden Heart final, she pimped herself as best she could, landed an amazing agent and sold to St. Martin's Press in a three-book deal. Darynda lives in the Land of Enchantment, also known as New Mexico, with her husband of more than 25 years and two beautiful sons, aka the Mighty, Mighty Jones Boys. She can be found at www.daryndajones.com.
She is also the creator of our Reyes

| Oh, wow! Great thread! I met her! There is a bit about it on Heros and Heartbreakers if you've read that, but THE SHOES! The great sandals on the cover of the first book. Darynda told me the name of the designer, but, damn, I forgot his name. Anyway, those are 900.00 designer sandals and the designer has since passed away. Apparently I wasn't the only one who freaked over the shoes, the interviewer on Heros and Heartbreakers was pretty jazzed about them, too. | |

| They don't have to bed nice names. minor FGOTR I'm thinking of naming my ovaries "I-Hate-You" and "Bitch". Haven't made it official yet - there are so many derogatory names to choose from and I like to keep my options open. | |

| My boobs are "Please" and "Thank you". Because they're needy, and we are all pretty happy when they get some attention.
I've thought of a few names for my uterus, but they are all gross. | |

| I'm going with something generic, because asking you to describe your boobs is weird for me. "Ready" and "Willing" ? "The Devil" and "Mrs. Jones" ? We need boobicons! I think you need names for your ovaries too. Hook her up, Fae! | |

| Ok I finished FGOTR and I soooo loved it. I am hooked for sure on this series. What outstanding writer by Darynda. Her humor is infectious. I liked how Reyes remained a mystery up until the very end and I was way off on my guesses too. I liked that trying to figure out just what the heck he is was not an obvious choice. | |
