Hello everyone! I’m back with part 3 of my short story. It’s long, and I did not get in everything I originally planned for it. The consequence is that the story will now be five parts, not four. However, I’ve finished some other work, giving me more time to work on it, so I’ll be …
The past six weeks were busy ones for me, launching Colonel Brandon in His Own Words and then tagging along with him on a whirlwind, 10-stop book tour. If you missed any of the festivities, look here for more book info, an excerpt, and a full list of tour stops with links. But now for …
Talk of Persuasion is all the rage these days. 🙂 Whereas P&P calls to mind grand estates and balls and long walks in the prettyish wildernesses of private gardens, when I think of Persuasion, I think mostly of rugged seascapes and of Bath. A few years ago, I wrote a duet of second-chance loves stories …

Hello everyone! Today, I’m posting the first part of a short story. I’m not sure exactly how many parts there will be—three or four. I sought inspiration in the July monthly theme, “When One Travels in the Summer”, but when I needed a little more to get the ideas flowing, I went back to another …
You’re probably be wondering whether I’m going to give an update on the release date of my third novel in my Dangerous Magic series. Alas, all I can report is that I’m working on it as diligently as possible, and I’ll let you know as soon as I’m sure of the release date. But for …
“I am not at all in a humor for writing; I must write on until I am.” ~Jane Austen Happy Thursday, dear readers! I hope your year is progressing nicely, as we’ve hit the half way point! Can you believe we are almost in July? Life has been busy for me as of late. If …
It’s launch day, and I’m so excited to introduce you to my brand new book! Colonel Brandon has arrived and is now ready to tell his story in His Own Words . “I was just going to tell you of our agreeable surprize in seeing him arrive…” (Jane Austen, Emma) What kind of book …
Hello everyone! I’m going to start this post a little differently by doing a land acknowledgement.
