About the
Author:
For
twenty-six years Cindy Mcdonald’s life whirled around a song and a dance: She
was a professional dancer/choreographer for most of her adult life and never
gave much thought to a writing career until 2005.Suddenly, she felt drawn to
her computer to write about things she have experienced (greatly exaggerated
upon of course) with her husband’s Thoroughbreds and the happenings at the
racetrack.
Why
didn’t Cindy write about my experiences with dance? You might ask. “Eh, believe
it or not life at the racetrack is more…racy.” Cindy says. “The drama is
outrageous—not that dancers don’t know how to create drama, believe me, they do
but race trackers just seem to get more down and dirty with it which makes great
story telling—great fiction.”
Cindy
didn’t start out writing books, The Unbridled Series started out as a TV drama,
and the Hollywood readers loved the show. When the series didn’t sell, Cindy
recalls, “One of the readers said to me, ‘Cindy, don’t be stupid. Turn your
scripts into a book series.’” And so she did!
In
May of 2011, Cindy took the big leap and exchanged her dancin’ shoes for a lap
top—she retired from dance. “It was a scary proposition,” Cindy confesses. “I
was terrified, but I had the full support of my husband, Saint Bill. It has
been a huge change for me. I went from dancing hard five hours a night to
sitting in front of a computer. I still work-out and I take my dog, Harvey, for
a daily run. I have to or I’d be as big as a house.”
Does
Cindy McDonald miss dancing? “Sometimes I do,” she says. “I miss my students. I
miss choreographing musicals, but I love my books and I love sharing them with
readers.”
