 Who the heck is Bren?
We'll let her tell you...

Many of you, especially those of you who know me as Kay, are asking, "Who the heck is Bren Yarbrough Bruhn?"

My entire name is Brenda Kay Yarbrough Bruhn.  But when I started a business many years ago, it became apparent that it was easier to use my first name for business purposes, since that's how my customers addressed me.  Brenda was eventually shortened to Bren, and when I published my books, I used the name Bren Yarbrough Bruhn.  

Speaking of business... I could never decide what I wanted to be when I grew up, so I guess I tried a little bit of everything, including teaching nursery school (when I was much, much younger and had nerves of steel). I was also a waitress/model, a pharmacy assistant, and a bookkeeper. But my first love has always been writing, even if it didn't pay the bills. I 've been writing since I was a teenager, heavily influenced by the work of Kathleen Woodiwiss and Margaret Mitchell. Fiction is my passion, but I've also written non-fiction articles for national publications.

I am also interested in art and occasionally dabble in artistic creations. In 1998, I started selling repainted fashion dolls on Ebay under the name "Lovely Painted Ladies." Most of the dolls I sold were dressed in period costumes and accompanied by a romantic short story. Soon the stories began to get as much attention as the dolls. My clients, and even absolute strangers, urged me to write a book.  So I did.

 The result was my first historical romance novel, "The Price Of Eden." My second book in the Florida series is, "Far From Paradise." Both books have been well received, and I'm quite proud of the glowing reviews that continue to come in. These two books were followed up by, "Delilah's Pirate," a time-travel romance set in Key West. My next project, "Apache Moon" takes me to New Mexico, and the Spanish invasion into Native American Territory. Then there is the third, and final, book in the Florida series, "What Heaven Forbids". I hope you will enjoy reading my books as much as I enjoyed creating them.  


Many blessings,
Bren
