I couldn’t decide what I wanted to be when I grew up, so naturally, I became a writer. My current obsessions change frequently, but this never does: I love coffee, dogs, history, Jane Austen, archeology, fantasy novels, comic books, Gilbert and Sullivan, BBC America, Star Wars, books with kissing and movies with lots of explosions.
I live in Texas but my dream is to move to a cottage. Or maybe a castle. It doesn’t have to be fancy, as long as it has wi-fi.

I just watched “Sylvia” as we tried to copy it to DVD to downsize my library as we’re moving. You were so wonderful, I googled you and found all this magic stuff about writing books. Amazing grapes! I guess I can say I knew you when. Good to see all is well with you. :~}
hello ms rosemary i am a student form lady bird middle school in Texas and i would like to know if you could skype with my book club about your book Texas Gothic thank you – Amethyst
Amethyst, I’m sure we can work something out! I definitely do Skype and I’d love to visit your book club. Email me at rosemary @ readrosemary.com and we shall discuss.
I just finished reading Texas Gothic and enjoyed it immensely. I hope it will be a movie someday. Your writing style is charming , insightful and down to earth. Thank you! Yvonne M.
hey, I am a girl from South Africa who has to do a reading project. I chose your book ‘The Splendour Falls’ and i have to say that i really enjoyed it! This project is such a lus, but reading your book made it better! Hoping to read more of your books, cheers
ohmygosh.I have decided that you are on my mental bulletin board of cool people and killer authors. Like seriously, plus the main chicks in ”Texas Gothic” and ”Spirit and Dust” are like on my wavelength! (The list of similarities is tangent-y!) minus the hunks.Well I just absolutely loved meeting you(I’m the hysterical girl with the crappy hair from the book club) I enjoy your work and totally plan on reading anything and everything you toss out into local Barns & Nobles, or more realistically Half Price Books… sorry for ranting. Love the books,love you, whatever your doing just keep doing! (:
Hi I love your books!!! I’ve just read brimstone, and I was only going to read a chapter but ended up staying the whole day in bed. I just wanted to ask, what advice can you give any people who want to start writing? It is something I always wanted to do, but now that I’ve got a job, it seems so hard to make time.. Thanks 🙂
Dear Mrs. Clements-Moore

This year we are are researching a career field as our yearly project, and I choose to research writing. As a part of the project, we need to shadow an person in the career field we choose to learn , for my project, what a typical day as an author would be like. The purpose of this email is to ask you if you would let me shadow you for a day. If the answer is yes, just email me back a good day for it!
Sincerely,

No relation. 😀 But Clement-Moore does have a literary ring to it because of that. (Good question! Not everyone knows why my name sounds familiar.)
