About Gina Ardito
I admit it; I'm far from perfect. I'm a raging
control freak who takes nothing seriously.
I've got too vivid an imagination, an
encyclopedic knowledge of useless
information, a soft heart, and a weakness for
children, animals, coffee, and chocolate. I'm
also involved in a long-time love affair with
my P.C.
All of these qualities make me difficult to live
with for an extended period of time--a fact
that would automatically vault my husband
of twenty-plus years to sainthood except that
he comes equipped with his own parcel of
vices and quirks!
But these same shortcomings in my personality make me a perfect candidate to write romantic
comedy.
Despite my occasional delusions of grandeur, I'm just a typical suburban lady with a husband (the
aforementioned almost-saint), the two best kids ever (and I'm not the least biased about that fact), a
bionic dog, a cat with a foot fetish (and a fondness for lobster, thanks to hubby's indulgence), and
the world's only living "skitten," who apparently moonlights as an in-home mattress tester.
I'm co-founder of Dunes & Dreams RWA, the Eastern Long Island chapter of Romance Writers of
America.
Since so much lunacy can't exist in a single persona, I also write historical romances under the pen
name, Katherine Brandon.
Oh...and did I mention the day job?
Never mind. We'll save that for another time.
