Jaclyn Reding is the award-winning author of numerous historical and contemporary romances, including the RITA award nominee, The Secret Gift. Since first publishing in 1993, Jaclyn has seen her stories translated into nearly a dozen languages around the world.       Jaclyn believes there is no better career than that of a writer. "Accountants," one of which she is married to, she says, "don't get paid to daydream, can't go to work in their pajamas, and certainly aren't allowed to write off their 15th rental of a Jane Austen video on their tax returns."       When she isn't writing, she can often be found scouring the shelves of antique bookshops or making a spectacle of herself when cheering at her son's hockey games. Jaclyn loves hearing from readers and answers every letter personally. You can write to her c/o Post Office Box 181, Holden, MA 01520, or send her an e-mail by clicking here.
