Biography
Married, with two brilliant children, one highly superior cat, and assorted other furred and finned creatures of indeterminate intelligence. Lisa enjoys mucking about in the garden of her Southern Oregon home, where, as in the wild, only the hardiest survive. When mourning the death of yet another plant, she indulges in chocolate in any form.
In past lives, Lisa has been a soda jerk, an executive secretary, the rear chainman on a survey crew, an ESL teacher in Japan, a loan officer, a research assistant on a boat in the Bering Sea, a night school instructor, and a medical transcriptionist, not necessarily in that order.
Professional
After years of daydreaming complex stories for familiar characters from film, TV, and books — nearly always involving a romance that hadn’t been included by the original writer — Lisa Hendrix borrowed a page from motivational speaker and author Marsha Sinetar and decided that it was time to start doing what she loved and hope that the money really would follow. She began writing the medieval romance from hell, a manuscript that taught her a lot, but which is now safely locked away where it can do no harm.
In April 1992, she carried a dot-matrix printed synopsis into an appointment with a Genuine New York City Editor at a local conference and pitched an idea for a historical romance set in the American West. The editor was interested and requested a partial manuscript, along with assurances that Lisa would buy a better printer. Credit card in hand, Lisa set out to comply. She mailed the proposal a month later, and five months after that, received The Call. Western historical romances HOSTAGE HEART and DRIFTER’S MOON were soon on the shelves, followed by contemporary romantic comedies RAZZLE DAZZLE, TO MARRY AN IRISH ROGUE, and her first single-title lead, RUNAWAY BAY.
Now she’s gone back to her medieval roots with The Immortal Brotherhood, a paranormal historical romance series featuring a crew of Viking warrors cursed to be immortal were-creatures. The series launched with IMMORTAL WARRIOR in 2008, followed by IMMORTAL OUTLAW and IMMORTAL CHAMPION. The fourth book, IMMORTAL DEFENDER is due out in 2013.
