I wouldn't call Gabaldon romance, but damn, there is an amazing romance at the center of her books. Mind you, I only read the first one--they take forever to read--but they are more along the lines of first-person, time-travel historical fiction. OUTLANDER, the first one, was fabulous. Just wonderful. I always thought I'd get around to reading the others but haven't. They are big and I am a slow reader due to no time to read.
She writes a mystery series, Lord John, also. Believe he is gay.
Very interesting person too--think she was an oceanographer or something before. Science of some sort.
You know if I went next year I'd always be at the writer tracks. I'll have to see what they are doing, if they even know yet. ;0
