(original recording made in 2000)
The late Julie Garwood made several appearances on the program back in
the days when romance writers made regular book tour visits to Dayton.
When she came through to do a live interview with me in 2000 she had
already sold over 30 million books. Those books had all been historical
romances. On this day in 2000 she was promoting her contemporary
romantic suspense novel "Heartbreaker," her first of many contemporary
romances that were then to follow.
Julie Garwood's books continue to sell. Over 40 million copies so far.
She died in 2023.
