Introduction Once upon a time, there was a girl named Skye Forbes. Skye was a mostly happy child who loved to read. One day, Skye discovered that not all books ended happily! She was crushed. “The world should be a happy place!” she cried. Her father agreed. With her mother's help, she set to read many, many happy books. And on her quest, Skye discovered Romance Novels. She was so pleased with her discovery of a whole genre of books that ended happily that she plopped herself down and swore she'd never read any other kind of book again. (Of course, she eventually had to, because she read too fast and ran out of romance novels, but that's a story for another time). Skye so loved Romance Novels that she decided, in her last year of college, to try writing one, instead of writing a regular boring old intellectual thesis about a book that doesn't end happily. Since then, she's dabbled with many subgenres of the Romance category and been happy writing ever since. Skye now lives with her co-pilot, Craig, in North Carolina, with their three cats. She will soon be moving to Oregon to attend law school, but does not intend to let school stop writing her own happy endings.
Interests Ballroom dance, romance novel writing, travel, eating, reading, movies. Lots of stuff really.
Favorite Movies Anything cheesy and funny. I'm a sucker for Disney's made for TV movies and other teen dramadies. I also love Cary Grant (anyone seen Bringing up Baby?).
Favorite Music Um... Pretty much anything. Really. I like it all.
Favorite Books WAY too many to mention. But same as movies, I like the cheesy and the funny. The ones that I like that don't fall into that category are: The Poisonwood Bible, The Far Pavilions, The Time Traveler's Wife, Stiff.

You're going to the moon! What did you forget to pack?

My pajamas. I never ever remember to pack my pajamas. Maybe it's because normally, i don't wear any. Oh well.
