J. R. Yates is a word nerd through and through. When she isn’t writing or reading, she practices as a pediatric speech-language pathologist (SLP) and herds her three bilingual children. She often jokes that she spends all day at work trying to get kids to talk, and the rest of her time at home trying to get her kids to stop! Married to the love of her life, her favorite moments are quiet evenings with her husband sharing a nice glass of wine at their home in the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Time alone, hiding out in a café, writing about sexy heroes that shred her heart is her bliss.
J. R. is a member of the Alexandra Writers’ Centre, the RWA and is #Teenpit and #Pitchwars Mentor.

Let’s be friends! Join the fun with me on Facebook and Twitter, where I often share writerly fun and the sexy heroes that inspire me.
J.R. Yates, I’m thrilled to find your blog! I’m a student now on the path to become an SLP and also in the process of publishing my own book. This site seems very helpful!
