"Webs of Fate grabbed my interest from the first line of the prologue and wouldn't let me go."

Nancy Taylor Rosenberg, New York Times bestselling author of The Cheater and My Lost Daughter

“On first opening the pages of Darlene Quinn’s Webs series, readers may well feel that they are in for an engaging ‘all about’ novel—in Quinn’s case all about the glamorous, dangerous, byzantine, and ultimately exciting world of fashion and high-end retail—and those readers would be right. But wait! There’s more! Quinn develops her storylines and plot in a way that keeps the world engaging and the books charging forward. And don’t get complacent—nothing is what it seems and no character is without great secrets that will twist events and surprise the reader in breathtaking ways. There’s a great deal of fun and entertainment to be had in falling into these beguiling webs.”

Frank Gaspar, author of Stealing Fatima, Endowed chair/distinguished professor and writer in residence, University of Massachusetts

With obvious “insider’s” knowledge, Darlene Quinn has created a web of intrigue that draws the reader into the best and worst of the retailer¹s world. I found myself rooting for her smart women, and wishing I could boo the villains. The book came with me on a trip, and once I began reading, I made sure it was always within easy reach. Best of all, I can say proudly, Darlene was once one of my students.

Darlene Quinn expertly captures the drama, greed, and emotional tumult of personal lives gone awry during the hostile takeover attempt of a high-end retail chain in Webs of Power.

Holiday Writing Schedules

Since my publication date in September, I found that there were not enough hours in the day for writing. That was unacceptable. I am currently working on Twisted Webs, the sequel to Webs of Power, and have adopted a 5 am start time. It was difficult at first because I have never been a morning person—but I’ve adjusted and have found it to be a quiet time free of interruptions, and it works for me.  During this holiday period, my writing time has not had to take a backseat.

 

My schedule is not for everyone. Find the time that works best for you. If you are employed at a full-time job, it might be before or after work, or even in your lunch hour. If you write only one page a day, by the end of the year you will have written the first draft of a novel.
