Who is Dara England?
Dara England is the author of the paranormal romance novel Brought to Life, scheduled for release in March of 2009 from Lyrical Press. This will be Dara’s first published novel, although you may have seen some of her short fiction around if you’re a frequent reader of fantasy zines like Allegory and Art&Prose.
Whether visiting medieval style fantasy worlds in her short fiction or journeying through her upcoming novel with a mysterious time traveling duke, Dara is fascinated by magical places and situations. Bringing old fashioned magic into the contemporary urban setting that is the backdrop of Brought to Life was one of the greatest challenges of the novel.
On any given day Dara can be found hunched in front of a battered old computer, typing away at her next manuscript. She is an Internet addict and can frequently be found on line at any of the following locations:
- http://www.myspace.com/DaraEngland - friend Dara through myspace.
- www.capriciousquills.com/ --A writers resource Dara runs in her spare time.
- http://amusedauthors.wordpress.com/ --A group author blog.
- http://groups.yahoo.com/group/lyricalpress/ --The Lyrical Press Yahoo Group.
- http://www.lyricalpress.com/brought_to_life.html -- Here's where you can find Brought to Life on or after March 16th, 2009.

Keira's favorite type of heroes are blind, scarred, and tortured... yes, she understands those should be separate, but all 3 at once is also nice! She enjoys historical romances best and adores audio books because great narrators turn books into auditory/mental movies (and she loves her romantic dramas like Pride and Prejudice/North and South!)
