I’ve been sharing about it in my newsletter, but not as much here. I’ll start catching up! (Read Chapter One Here.) When I first posted this …

Happy Friday, Janeites! Once again, I come before you with a small offering of my newest, unedited manuscript. Not untitled you ask? No! My darling child now has a new name, thanks to reader J. W. Garrett’s suggestion! “The Consequence of Courage” will be available this summer, and I can’t wait for you to devour …
