About
Genevieve (Gen) LaGreca writes novels with innovative plots, strong romance, and themes that glorify personal freedom and independence. Gen's debut novel is Noble Vision. This romantic medical thriller won two important national literary awards. It was a Foreword magazine Book of the Year Finalist. It was also a finalist in the Writer's Digest International Book Awards contest-one of only six picks honoring general fiction published by independent presses. Noble Vision garnered praise from magazine magnate Steve Forbes, Nobel laureate Milton Friedman, syndicated columnist Walter E. Williams, and other influential thinkers. Showing her virtuosity across genre lines, Gen's second offering is the historical novel, A Dream of Daring. This antebellum murder mystery took five book awards, including the celebrated Foreword Book of the Year Finalist in Romance, as well as the Midwest Book Awards Finalist in Romance and in Historical Fiction, and the Next Generation Indie Book Awards Finalist in Multicultural Fiction and in Regional Fiction. Gen's third novel is the science-fiction romance and adventure, Fugitive From Asteron. In addition to fiction, Gen also writes social and political commentaries, which have appeared in Forbes, The Orange County Register, The Daily Caller, Real Clear Markets, Mises Daily, The Gainesville Sun, and other publications. On the personal side, Gen is engaged to a university professor; she and he live in the Midwest. Prior to fiction writing, Gen worked as a pharmaceutical chemist, business consultant, and corporate writer. She holds an undergraduate degree in chemistry from Polytechnic Institute of New York and a graduate degree in philosophy from Columbia University. Her variety of life experiences-in science and business, as well as in philosophy and writing-brings vibrant characters, urgent issues, thematic depth, and an outside-the-box approach to Gen's novels. Their sweeping themes of self-sovereignty and the triumph of the individual attract thoughtful readers across genre lines. To contact Gen, send her a message: genlagreca[at]hotmail[dot]com.
