| Introduction | Kiersten Hallie Krum is a 30-something Jersey girl without the accent but plenty of the attitude. I write romantic suspense fiction and am actively searching for the right agent or editor to make my dreams come true. There is always music around me. I sing everywhere. I am that annoying person who hums behind you in the check out line. Be thankful I'm at least in tune. I love animals, but have an inexplicable bond with cats, of which I have two. I'm a fully outed Anglophile offset by a particular affection for things Celtic, thanks to a year studying Celtic History at Oxford. I also have a Masters degree from NYU. By day I'm an editor for a pharmaceutical agency, by night I am many other things. I have deeply flawed car karma. This has nothing to do with the fact that I drive like a fiend. I like to spray whipped cream straight into my mouth from the can, have an affection for Captain and Coke, hard cider, and Reisling wine, and may someday rule the world, or at least one of my own making. |
| Interests | Music, can't live without music. I love the dramatic arts in their many forms, but have particular inclination for movies, theatre, and good television. |

| Favorite music | So much music, so little time. I love music, nearly every form of it. Classic rock, hard rock, alternative rock, southern rock, torch songs, classical, swing music, country rock, jazz, selective pop songs. Just about everything except rap, urban rock, and hip hop.
