Welcome back to Interview with a Janeite, the feature where we interview some of Jane Austen’s biggest fans. This month we sat down with Jeanne Garrett, who had a lot of fun anecdotes to share. Her host this month is Leslie Diamond, so I’ll turn it over to the ladies! AV: What was your introduction …
My latest little darling flew the coop last week, and I could not be more thrilled to send it out into the world. London Holiday was a book I wrote for purely selfish reasons—I wanted to have some fun, and I hope it has been just as much fun for those of you who have …
I shall be brief because I am packing. Next week I am off to ‘The Lakes’ – Elizabeth Bennet never made it as far – luckily for her she was diverted to Pemberley – but having already bagged my Mr Darcy, I am determined to see Windermere. I shall send a postcard! I just wanted …
I’ve been working on a new book, and I thought what better way to provide me with the incentive to keep on to the finish is to post each chapter here. I have about 15 chapters completed, but not edited. I am posting the first chapter today, and will continue to post every other week …

“That’s a wrap!” Isn’t that what the director shouts when the last scene has been shot and it’s time to go home? It has to be a bittersweet moment. Everybody on the set has worked hard for months. They’re exhausted and desperately in need of rest. And yet, if it’s been a great project, it …
I have been hinting about it for a while, and the time has finally come to unveil my latest project. I am so excited to share the official book blurb, as well as the opening scene. Oh! And the title! I have been pretty tight-lipped about the whole thing, so here it is! This is …
I’m utterly tickled to announce that the Pride and Prejudice arc of my Jane Austen’s Dragons series is complete with the release of Netherfield: Rogue Dragon.
