Meet Zara
~Romance Writer~
Born in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, Zara spends winters in New York where the streets hum with life, summers in the Maritimes where the sea can be cruel, and the rest of the year anywhere inspiration for tales of adventure, mystery, and romance are plentiful.
Swept off her feet by her own Indiana Jones, Zara has followed sheep and goats up and down mountainsides in Greece, Crete, and Italy, been stranded on the banks of the Rhine with no money and one chocolate bar, and while she has never been kidnapped, she has been abandoned on an island in the middle of the wilderness for longer than she wants to remember. Now she writes books for the romantic adventurer in us all.
A member of Romance Writers of America and Women’s Fiction Writers Association, Zara is a published author of both fiction and non-fiction. Her short stories have appeared in several anthologies, and have received awards from Women on Writing, Stone Thread Publishing, Tryst Literary Magazine, and Winning Writers. Her novels have placed first in the Pages from the Heart, Romance Through the Ages, and I Heart Indie contests, second in the Touch of Love contest, and InD’Tale Magazine’s Rone Awards, third in the Emma Merritt, 5th in the Fab5, and long-listed for the Mslexia Award for Fiction.
My Charities
Violence against anyone is wrong. While my novels are imaginary, there is plenty of real violence in our homes and our communities. A percentage of the proceeds from the sale of my books is donated to the following organization that makes a difference in people’s lives.
Sanctuary for Families is a non-profit group located in New York City dedicated to addressing domestic and gender violence and sex trafficking
