Happy New Year! It’s hard to believe another year has come and gone, and yet – here we are at 2019. Is anyone else as astonished as I am that it has been 19 years since we entered this century? We are ringing in the New Year with our annual Jane in January 2019! This …
This month some of us are writing on the theme “Down the Research Rabbit Hole.” In my book launch, I wrote a little bit about how researching the birds in the UK led me to the magpie, and research on the magpie led to Mr. Darcy’s unusual hobby and Mr. Bennet’s naming each of his …
Before we get to my post for today, I want to announce the winners of “Mr. Darcy’s Magpie.” They are… drumroll, please… Rose and Ginna! Congratulations! I will be contacting you by email soon! Thanks to everyone who commented. I greatly appreciate all your encouraging words! And now… today’s post! Oh, the pleasures of a …
Sorry, there is no excerpt from the book today, but there is a giveaway! (Details at the bottom of the post.) This is more of an announcement of the pre-release of the kindle version of the book, accompanied by the cover reveal and the book’s title. The kindle pre-order has gone live, and the link …
As I mentioned last week, this is the last chapter I am going to post. Next week I will give more information about the book. For starters, there is a different title than what I’ve been using here, mainly because this is just what I called it when I began writing it. I will also …
I have to admit, your comments and suspicions about Miss Westerfield greatly entertained me. There was nothing false about the accident, and no manipulative motives in writing Darcy requesting that he come. Derbyshire is a good distance from London and her home, and from Wakespur Manor, where she was, it would have taken longer for …
Things have not gone well for Darcy and Elizabeth to have an honest talk with each other. Will it happen in this chapter? If you are new to the story, you can find Chapter 1 here. I hope you enjoy, and please be kind to the author, no yelling. Chapter 13 Elizabeth spent the afternoon …
Again, thank you for all your comments. In Chapter 11 Wickham showed up, and we’ll see a little more of him in this chapter. Something prompted the Westerfields to decide to leave, but will Darcy find out what that was? And will their departure open the door for Elizabeth and Darcy to finally talk? Maybe. …
I was delighted with your comments last week saying how much you enjoyed the chapter. It was fun for me to write, and your positive feedback is always appreciated. Having said that, well, all I can say about this chapter is, “I am sorry.” You know that it is too early in the story for …
It has been a lot of fun to read all your comments, and especially when you want to see something happen that I know is coming up. This is one of those chapters that I think you will enjoy – there is only a tiny bit of angst that will be left unresolved, but other …
