A P&P Modern Short Story, Part Three
Greetings, friends! Long, long ago (in March), I posted the first part of a modern P&P short story. I began the project as a way to get out of my writing rut. While I can’t say I’ve accomplished that particular feat, I have managed to write another installment of the story! If you’d like to …
Just the Day for a Wedding!
Greetings, friends! I have emerged from the other side of my term in the classroom. My students were fun, as always – but they sure kept me busy grading papers and developing lesson plans! I am back this month with two posts, both related to our monthly theme: today, I’ll post “Just the Day for …
Spring Short Story, Part Two
Greetings! Today I’m posting the second part of a short story I started in March. As I mentioned in the last post, I began this story as a way to accomplish two goals: 1.) I wanted to give myself a fun writing challenge (especially because I’m struggling with writing these days!); and 2.) I hoped …
The start of spring…the start of a new short story!
Happy spring! As I write this, we’re digging out from the most snow we’ve gotten all winter, so I’m all about this “rebirth and rejuvenation” theme! (Note: I originally wrote this post in early March. The end of March has actually been quite lovely here…except today it’s snowing again!) Because I had no idea what …
When Darcy Met Bingley…

A Christmas Scene from A Remedy Against Sin
Happy day-after Boxing Day! Am I allowed to wish you a happy Boxing Day even if I’m an American living in America who has never in her life celebrated Boxing Day? It’s one of those holidays that I’m sure I’ve romanticized, so if you do celebrate Boxing Day, I’d love to hear what the day …

We’re decking our halls and wrapping our presents. How about something to tide you over in your quiet hours as you await New Year’s Day 2023? Like a great book! This is …
Dispelling the Gloom, Part 4
Happy November—and for those of you who celebrate the holiday, Happy American Thanksgiving! I am thankful to be part of a community that takes such pleasure in Jane Austen’s works. I’m also thankful for your patience! Over a month ago, I began a “vignette” called “Dispelling the Gloom,” based on October’s magic and malevolence theme. …
