Glynnis Talken Campbell

Glynnis Talken Campbell is an American romance author, composer, musician and voice actress, and is married to bass guitarist Richard Campbell. Glynnis Campbell studied music at California State University, Chico. Her first romantic novel, My Champion, was nominated for a Romance Writers of America's RITA award for Best First Book, and in 2009 was awarded "Book Buyers Best" Historical Romance for her novel Danger's Kiss, written under the pen names Sarah McKerrigan and Kira Morgan.

Career
After college, Glynnis Talken joined the Los Angeles-based all-girl rock band The Pinups, signed to CBS records. After a short time, she left the band, but quickly found work doing voice-overs while composing music scores with her husband for Coronet Films. She was given the role of Julie Winters in an MTV animated series based on a graphic novel called The Maxx. Campbell has said the staff of computer games company Blizzard Entertainment saw this performance and requested her services to add voice-overs for a collection of characters from Diablo and StarCraft. Her moody work with the voiceover for Sarah Kerrigan was instrumental in setting the game's atmosphere and for developing the plot. A Womengamers.com online review of computer game characters gave the voice an 8.4/10 rating and described the character as "one of the best-sounding women ever to come out of a computer game".

Besides voice acting, Campbell is a historical romance novel writer, and has been nominated for a number of literature awards. After joining Warner Books as her new publisher during late 2005, the publisher asked her to change her pseudonym of Glynnis Campbell. She chose the book writer pseudonym: Sarah McKerrigan, in homage to her StarCraft voice acting. She published Lady Danger in April 2006, Captive Heart in October 2006, Knight's Prize in May 2007, and Danger's Kiss in May 2008, using her Sarah McKerrigan pseudonym.

In 2010, Campbell started writing under a new pseudonym, Kira Morgan, for Hachette Book Group USA. Her romance novel, Captured By Desire, is set in Mary, Queen of Scots-era Scotland, and was released August 2010, followed by Seduced by Destiny in March 2011.

Beginning in 2012, she returned to writing under her real name of Glynnis Campbell, releasing her first self-published eBook Scottish historical romance novel Passion's Exile, followed by The Shipwreck, The Outcast, Native Gold, Native Wolf, and The Handfasting. She became a USA Today bestselling author with her book in the collection Romance to the Rescue.
