The novella is now live on Amazon, and I really can’t wait to share it with all of you. I’m dying to know what you think! If you’ve read Fortune and Felicity, you’ll discover quickly that the two stories are pretty different. For one thing, A Longbourn Entanglement is quite absurd. For another, a great …
Happy Friday! I’ve been busy fixing up my house as well as proofing the audiobook for Rain and Retribution, which is extremely close to being submitted for approval. In the meantime, I hope you’re ready for the holidays because I have a Christmas story I’m prepping to come out next month. I don’t have a …
The only mention of the word harvest in Jane Austen’s major novels, as far as I can discover, takes place in Mansfield Park. Not surprisingly, her “harvest scene” provides us with another opportunity to observe the cleverness and deliberation with which Jane Austen reveals her characters through subtle details. Each of the two paragraphs …
Finally it’s here: my short and sweet Pride and Prejudice comic variation!!! I’ve been wanting to release this novella for some time now. I started writing it before I began Dangerous Magic, but then I got side-tracked with the magic and put this one on the backburner. I’ve been working on it in-between writing Book …

Good morning! Many thanks to all who came out and said such nice things about the cover reveal for my upcoming release So Material a Change. I’ll be giving you a few excerpts from SMAC over the upcoming weeks, so keep an eye out! I posted the first excerpt back in March which many of …
Considering our August theme – Up The Garden Path – I knew immediately what I should share today. Although I daresay every novel I’ve ever written features a garden walk or two, I’m sure there must be more of them in The Ladies of Rosings Park than any other. There’s even a chapter by that …
When Friday the thirteenth occurs during a summer month, it never seems quite as spooky to me as when it falls in October. Still, it is Friday the thirteenth, and while Austen was surely too rational to care much for superstitions, I am not a particularly rational person. So, here is a short scene from …
Or is it to Oxford? Or Eton? Or to Mrs Goddards’? “No governess!” How was that possible?” Five daughters brought up at home without a governess! I never heard of such a thing! Your mother must have been quite a slave to your education.” ~Lady Catherine de Bourgh With the ‘dog days’ of summer …
