Biography

A musician and story teller from early childhood, Robin Helm's time revolves around music and writing as she plays, teaches and publishes. Her books reflect her joy in music, as well as her fascination with the paranormal and science fiction.

Her latest publication is Understanding Elizabeth, in which Darcy must decide how much he’s willing to pay to have what he wants. Previously published works include The Guardian Trilogy (Darcy is Elizabeth’s guardian angel, Austenesque Reviews 2013 P & P Variation/Alternate Path Award) and the Yours by Design series (Fitzwilliam Darcy switches places in time with his descendant, Will Darcy. Austenesque Reviews, Top Ten Time Travel novels).

Mrs. Helm is also featured in an anthology with three other like-minded authors. A Very Austen Christmas was named one of the favorite books of 2017 by reviewer Janet Taylor of More Agreeably Engaged.

She lives in South Carolina and adores her husband, two married daughters, three grandchildren, and four family dogs.

Do You Listen to Music While Writing? What Kind?

Depends on what I'm writing. I wrote large parts of The Guardian Trilogy while listening to songs like "Thou, Oh Lord," as well as classical and pop music.
