Loreth Anne White was born and raised in southern Africa, but now lives in Whistler, a ski resort in the moody British Columbian Coast Mountain range. It’s a place of vast, wild and often dangerous mountains, larger-than-life characters, epic adventure, and romance — the perfect place to escape reality.
It’s no wonder it was here she was inspired to abandon a 16-year career as a reporter, features writer, and editor (under the name Loreth Beswetherick) to escape into a world of romantic fiction filled with dangerous men and adventurous women.
When she’s not writing you will find her long-distance running, biking or skiing on the trails, and generally trying to avoid the bears – albeit not very successfully. She calls this work, because it’s when the best ideas come.
Hello, Loreth Anne. I see you are with Silhouette. Great! Apart from my mystery fiction, I write romances under a pseudonym for Harlequin's Kimani Romance line--with my next, CHRISTMAS HEAT, coming out in Dec. '07. Cheers.
Hello, Loreth Anne. Nice to meet you too. Good to hear that you read STATE'S EVIDENCE. Will have to check out some of your work as a fan of romantic suspense. :>)
When I lived in the lower mainland, we used to go walking at Rocky Point, Belcarra and Buntzen all the time, and although we encountered others who'd just seen a bear, never spotted one ourselves all that time. We had to go to northern BC and the Yukon to get a glimpse. Lucky you, you've got one that visits regularly!
Sandra, Whistler probably has too many bears. If you come and spend a few days up here, especially at this time of year, you are pretty much guaranteed to see one.
Wow, and I thought I lived in the country! I guess I do but in comparison you live in the wilderness. It must be gorgeous where you are. I love nature. Smiles!
Hi Loreth. Where in Southern Africa - I'm Johannesburg born, livein Cape Town now? And growing up down here, how'd you find adapting to the cold up there?
"Lekker" to hear from you Loreth. You're right about how beautiful Cape Town is. But up in the mountains where you are, those lakes and trees and nature like nature intended - that's true beauty.
I've been to your beautiful Whistler when I spent 10 days in Vancouver. We toured the area quite a bit. Loved it. Thanks for the request and your books sound wonderful. I lived in Alaska for 10 years so the area of the world you write about intrigues me too. Best wishes to you!! Delete Comment
Hi Loreth, since we are pretty well neighbours, I thought I would say hello. I love skiing and we go up to Whistler quite a bit. We have friends in Whistler Cay and Alpine where we usually stay. Are you coming down for the writer's fest this week on Granville Island? I am going to see Elizabeth George on Saturday. Good luck with your new book -I don't know much about tracking, but my dad worked up north near Watson Lake for many years, so if there is a small mining town in your book I have some good stories! Take care and drop me a line.
Well, thank for checking out Antler Dust. What can one say? It's good to know that the window-dressing / PR stuff "around" a book does connect out there. I appreciate your searching and reading the blurbs and reviews and would love to know your thoughts if you decide to track it down.
