Ginger Voight

In addition to being a freelance writer and author, Ginger Voight is an optioned screenwriter who has completed eight feature length screenplays since 2002. This prolific novelist has several ebook and print editions of her work available, including the edgy, coming-of-age drama DIRTY LITTLE SECRETS, and the fun family adventure for kids of all ages, COMIC SQUAD.

Having grown up on Danielle Steel and Stephen King, Ginger both reads and writes a variety of genres from kids books to horror. Titles such as MY IMMORTAL and TASTE OF BLOOD are a delicious, heady mix of potent genres like horror, suspense and romance.

Genre romance, however, has held a special place in her heart ever since she read her first Harlequin novel when she was only eleven. Today Ginger writes romances of her own, starring women who look more like the average American woman rather than those traditionally represented in the size-biased American media. Her "Real Woman Romance" Rubenesque series was created especially for those romantic heroines with fuller figures who can still get the man of their dreams if only they believe they can. Such titles include UNDER TEXAS SKIES, LOVE PLUS ONE and GROUPIE. Her contemporary, Rubenesque titles have even won her category best-selling distinctions on the All Romance e-Books website.

Additionally she has published poetry in several anthologies as well as several websites, and you can find a collection of her best odes to love and heartache in JOURNEY THROUGH THE HEART.

As an avid blogger, Ginger has earned a faithful following on several websites. Her topics cover everything from pop culture, travel, diets and weight loss, movies and books as well as news and politics. Her blog "Ginger@Large" has a socio-political bent from a Christian Progressive point of view.

She has been featured on the Hal Sparks Radio Program from Chicago's Progressive Talk Radio, and occassionally moderates for Hal's U-Stream Chat Room on Wednesdays and Saturdays as her schedule allows.

Ginger was included in the best selling book by Smith Magazine NOT QUITE WHAT I WAS PLANNING, featuring her six word memoir. Additionally you can read her essay KISSED BY A MUSE published on the website for Smith Magazine's 2011 project THE MOMENT. It demonstrates how an influential teacher and a spark of creative thinking changed an 11-year-old's perspective in an instant and gave her a passion for a lifetime.

Ginger is an unapologetic progressive with enough optimism to annoy Pollyanna. In 2010 she began to host the event "International Nice(r) Day" on Facebook to help honor the anniversary of 9/11. She hopes that by encouraging everyone to be a little nicer and pay forward random acts of kindness it can promote social unity and begin to heal deep national scars.

Her brave and noble family provides the main inspiration for her stories as well as the courage to follow her dreams. She lives with her husband, her two fantastic sons and a menagerie of four-legged, furry children, including a singing Pug named Winston Q. Pooter.
