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 …
Is it possible to have too many Williams? I like the name – very much, in fact. Even so, there ought to be a limit as to number. One thing I’ve learned as a novelist is that you shouldn’t confuse your readers with character names that are too similar. If you’ve already got a Terry …
Its release day for A Folly of Youth! You can get it at Amazon (read for free if you are a KU subscriber!) but before you go–hope you enjoy this excerpt! A little drabble from the substory, wherein Saye does his darnedest to make Lilly love him! Saye stood in the Upper Rooms with Darcy—who …
Hello, Janeites! Happy May! I hope your year has been going wonderfully, and will continue to bring you joy! As a busy mom of three handsome boys (I’m biased, I know), sometimes things get lost in the shuffle, and I go into cruise control. There are things that we know will happen with …
It’s release day!! Well, it was meant to be release day on April 20th, but Amazon gave me a little surprise by publishing early! 😀 To celebrate, I’ll be gifting TWO e-book copies to TWO LUCKY WINNERS! Just leave a message below letting me what you enjoy most about Darcy and Elizabeth’s interactions in Rosings. …
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 …
I’ve been waiting impatiently for my new full-length novel Allow Me to Tell You to be ready for release, and we’re finally there. I’m just waiting for final edits from my Beta readers to arrive, and then I’m be ready to press publish. 😀 Here’s the description for Allow Me to Tell You When Fitzwilliam …
Good morning, dear readers! I hope you enjoy revisiting one of my favorite posts from a few years ago. I have updated the game at the end and can’t wait to see your new comments below. Happy Thursday! To love and appreciate something, you really have to understand it; understand the layers, …
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 …
I’m currently revising a section from the ending of my novel, and as I was reading it one last time, it brought tears to my eyes. I must admit, I do like the journey D&E go through in this novel. I think they find out a lot about themselves as well as each other. Are …
