The Rules in Rome (36 page)
Authors: A.L. Sowards
A.L. Sowards has always been
fascinated by the 1940s, but she’s grateful she didn’t live back then. She doesn’t think she could have written a novel on a typewriter, and no one would have been able to read her handwriting if she’d written her books out longhand. She does, however, think they had the right idea when they rationed nylon and
women went barelegged.
Sowards grew up in Moses Lake,
Washington. She graduated from BYU and ended up staying in Utah, where she enjoys spending time with her husband
and children or with her laptop. She
does not own a typewriter. She does own
several pairs of nylons.
