The author was an only child. She was always daydreaming, a habit her teachers hated. Shayla studied marketing in college before meandering through the corporate arena.

But advertising was not her passion. She wanted to tell stories, a dream that eventually came true when she decided to write full-time. The author was a junior in college when she fell in love with romance.

Shayla was in a used bookstore trying to find a rare textbook. While the clerk searched for the volume, the author passed the time by browsing the romance section. One novel caught her eye because she had seen her babysitter reading it.

Shayla was quite young at the time, and the babysitter in question kept her away from the novel because the story was saturated with adult elements. Determined to quench her curiosity, Shayla bought the book and loved it so much that she bought another one.

From that point onward, romance became the author’s favorite genre. As such, it was her genre of choice when she decided to pursue publishing. Romance appeals to Shayla because it encompasses a broad spectrum of concepts ranging from sweet Victorian-era tales about lords and ladies to suspenseful contemporary sagas littered with rugged bikers and billionaires.

Shayla can write any story that pleases her, and no one will bat an eye. She appreciates the freedom. However, the genre’s most prominent critics do not realize that romance stories are challenging to write.

After all, love is a complex topic. Ask ten people to define love, and you will receive ten different answers. And yet, Shayla must convince all ten people that the love she has crafted between her protagonists is real and relatable.

Shayla isn’t complaining. She loves her job and relishes the challenges the romance genre presents. Interestingly enough, Shayla doesn’t take inspiration from other authors, not because she’s the best in the business, but because Shayla doesn’t want to replicate other people.

She doesn’t see the point in obsessing over the tactics and writing styles of her peers when she is better off being herself. As far as her stories are concerned, everything in life inspires Shayla, not just music and people but pets.

She doesn’t have a daily routine because the author hates monotony. Therefore, she is always looking for opportunities to shake things up. Although, more often than not, she will start her day by going to the gym.

Because she isn’t a morning person, Shayla spends the first quarter of the day tackling the business end of writing and publishing.

Shayla Black Awards

Shayla has received recognition from the Colorado Romance Writers Award, National Reader’s Choice Award, and the Romantic Times.
