Charlotte Hughes Explained
Charlotte Hughes (born 1954) is an American author of romance and comedy novels, who lives in South Carolina.
Biography
Hughes was born in Williamston, South Carolina; soon after her birth, her family relocated to Texas. While she was a voracious reader as a child, she didn't care for the canonical works. She's said, "In high school and college, I was force-fed a lot of what is considered great literature. I must’ve been a shallow person because I didn’t appreciate it at the time, and I don’t remember most of what I read."
Hughes began her writing career in the early 1980s as the features editor of a small newspaper. She wrote humorous short pieces before venturing into longer works.[1]
Career
Hughes, a New York Times best selling author, has written almost 40 books. These award-winning books run the gamut from romance to mystery, as well as humor, horror and suspense.
Hughes was one of the first category romance writers to secure a top-50 ranking on USA Todays list. A two-time recipient of the Maggie Award, she has also won the Talisman Award for best short story writer.
