Here we go again! It’s book 3 of the Wedding Planners series! I loved writing about Charlie and Jensen and I hope you’ll enjoy reading their story just as much. I’m previewing the first four chapters here, and release day is Thursday! Squee! I can’t wait! *Please note there is adult language in this preview! …
A lovely summer’s day at Chawton House and Library in 2015. Picture the scene. Tea and biscuits; fans, academics, and actors from the 1995 series mingle. Twenty years on and the BBC Pride and Prejudice adaptation prompted passion, interest, and curiosity at this anniversary conference. I think that the Chawton House Trust could have sold …
Woohoo! It’s book launch day for Prayer and Praise: A Jane Austen Devotional! It’s been well over a year since I had a new release, not because I haven’t been writing, but because, for a change, I’ve been working on more than one project at once – a short story, a play, and another novel …
Recently, a friend and I were having a conversation about what it takes to write and publish a novel. After many years of having a story idea floating around in her head, she had decided to give writing a shot, and wanted to know if I had any advice for a first-time author. And while …
Your Austen Variations authors have so much going on this month (with new releases, etc.) that there haven’t been many posts so far using this month’s theme: Fantastical Austen, where the strange and paranormal are meant to be featured.

Well, I’m rounding out September with a sneak peek of the last book in the Wedding Planners series! I’m already hard at work on a Regency for my next. It’s a book I started five years ago and became distracted with An Unwavering Trust, so cross your fingers the muse cooperates and I can finish …
Here, for Austen Variations readers, is another excerpt from my new novel, The Bride of Northanger, which has now been in the world for four days, having been published last Thursday! I posted an excerpt that day, the story’s opening, which takes place on the evening before the wedding of Catherine Morland and Henry Tilney. …
Publication Day, and my book The Bride of Northanger is unleashed upon the world, in all its adventurous, Gothic, mysterious, romantic, historical, humorous and Austenesque splendor. Or so it is in my own mind, for what mother does not admire her own sucking child? Jane Austen did herself. (With much more justification, needless to say, …
Normally I wouldn’t have much first-hand info to report on storms from the first half of September. In fact, we often have some of our nicest weather this month. Yes, a few spots of the rain Seattle is famous for, but lots of sun and warm temperatures too. This year has been different, however. We’ve …
Thank you again to everyone who made this fundraiser so successful! We’ve raised nearly $1100 alone from the tag-a-long story alone. We still need to add up the cameos and the other fundraiser offers to get a grand total. The last part is written by L. L. Diamond. Thanks for reading! Don’t forget that the …
