Timeline

1948

Debbie Macomber (born October 22, 1948) is an American author of romance novels and contemporary women's fiction.

Six of her novels have become made-for-TV movies and her Cedar Cove series of novels was adapted into a television series of the same name.

1986

In most years since 1986, Macomber has released a Christmas-themed book or novella.

Macomber's novels focus on delivering the message of the story and do not include detailed descriptive passages.

Her heroines tend to be optimists, and the "stories are resolved in a manner that leaves the reader with a feeling of hope and happy expectation."

Many novels take place in small, rural towns, with her Cedar Cove series loosely based on her own hometown, Port Orchard, Washington.

Because of her Christian beliefs, Macomber does not include explicit sexual details in her books, although they do contain sensuality.

Over 170 million copies of her books are in print throughout the world.

1988

In 1988, Harlequin asked Macomber to write a series of interconnected stories, which became known as the Navy series.

Before long, she was releasing two or three titles per year.

1994

By 1994, Macomber began releasing single-title novels.

1997

She is a national board member for Warm-Up America, and was appointed an ambassador for the Big Brothers Big Sisters of America national office in 1997.

1998

This Matter of Marriage became a made-for-TV-movie in 1998.

Six of Macomber's novels have been made into Hallmark television movies: Debbie Macomber's Mrs. Miracle, Call Me Mrs. Miracle, Trading Christmas (based on Macomber's novel When Christmas Comes), Mr. Miracle, Dashing Through the Snow and A Mrs. Miracle Christmas.

Macomber also now writes inspirational nonfiction, including cookbooks and children's books.

Macomber owns a yarn store in Port Orchard, Washington, and there is a Debbie Macomber line of knitting pattern books.

2001

Her first hardcover was released in 2001.

2002

In 2002, Macomber realized that she wanted to write books focusing more on women and their friendships.

Thursdays at Eight was her first departure from the traditional romance novel into contemporary women's fiction.

2005

Macomber was the inaugural winner of the fan-voted Quill Award for romance in 2005 and has been awarded both a RITA Award and a lifetime achievement award by the Romance Writers of America.

She also works as executive producer on the television adaptations of her books.

Macomber is dyslexic and has only a high school education.

Determined to be a writer, she sat in her kitchen in front of a rented typewriter to develop her first few manuscripts, while raising four children.

After five years and many rejections from publishers, she turned to freelance magazine work.

Macomber attended a romance writer's conference, where one of her manuscripts was selected to be publicly critiqued by an editor from Harlequin.

The editor tore apart her novel and recommended that she throw it away.

Undaunted, Macomber spent $10 to mail the same novel, Heartsong, to Harlequin's rival, Silhouette Books.

Silhouette bought the book, which became the first romance novel to be reviewed by Publishers Weekly.

Starlight was the first of her novels to be published, as part of the Silhouette Special Edition romance line.

Macomber continued to write romances for Silhouette, and later Harlequin.

Macomber is a three-time winner of the B. Dalton Award, and the inaugural winner of the fan-voted Quill Award for romance (2005, for 44 Cranberry Point).

She has been awarded the Romantic Times Magazine Distinguished Lifetime Achievement Award and has won a Romance Writers of America RITA Award, for The Christmas Basket.
