Why two names? When I was in my mother’s womb, she was sure she was having twins. She decided to call “us” Ellen and Emily. Later, when I wrote my first racy romance, I decided to use a pen name. ”Emily” made her appearance. Gillette=razor=sharp…you get my drift.
Now, it makes it easy to distinguish between the more G/PG rated books (Ellen) and the R+ books (Emily) but it also shows, to me anyway, that we are all complex, multi-layered individuals.
I hope you’ll check out my titles. I write for Indian River Media group, have two blogs (www.ellenpoems.blogspot.com and www.ellengillette.blogspot.com), and substitute teach in south Florida. I’m a community theater enthusiast, as well as a freelance editor and illustrator. If you’d like to contact me about a book reading/signing, my email is ellengillette22@gmail.com or readercontact@ellenandemily.com (I’m trying that out….) Find “us” on Facebook too!
I have published as Ellen Gillette with an indie press, Pen It Publications. Unfortunately, as of December 31, 2024, Pen It is closing its doors. It’s been a great ride, but now…who knows? I have an idea of a best-case scenario but we’ll just have to see. If you click on book titles for Amazon descriptions and there’s nothing there…that’s why. Stay tuned.
