Debbie Macomber Books

Surviving against all odds to become a writer can be best exemplified by Debbie Macomber, who is today one of the most heartthrob American authors. Born in 1948 in Yakima, Washington with dyslexia, she couldn’t read until the age of 12 and didn’t continue education after leaving high school. But her inner charm at stringing words was always present and gave the world an amazing plethora of stories. She started her career on with various freelancing work for different magazines. The world wasn’t all welcoming to her from the very start and she tasted success after years of frugal living. Little did the people who rejected her works knew that she would someday outshine everyone to perch on the top of romance-hierarchy.

Print:

She made her debut with her novel Starlight, but it received a tepid response. She had a major change in her writing style in 2002 when she focused more on exploring the friendship between women and leave the traditional boundaries of romance, and there she hit the perfect chord. She continued to work and explore many areas like non-fiction, cookbooks, and even children’s books. Her writing is also deeply influenced by strong Christian beliefs and is devoid of any sexual content. She now owns a Yarn shop in Port Orchard Washington and spends the winter down south in Florida. She is a mother of four and now a happy and proud grandmother as well.

Her works include the Cedar Cove series which consists of 12 books. Next came the 11 book series, Blossom Street, followed by Rose Harbor, Orchard Valley, and Wyoming Brides. She churns out a healthy dose of 2-3 books a year. The Heart of Texas, which starts with Lonesome Cowboy and ends with the 8th book, Return to Promise is one of her best series. It’s a microcosm of American culture and a deeply moving set of novels. It’s no wonder that she stayed for a spectacular 750 weeks on the New York Time’s Bestsellers list for all her novels. But still, her fans are never satisfied and wants more. Even at the age of 68, she dutifully jots down at least 2 novels a year to calm her growing fans. Many believe that the best is yet to come.
