Elizabeth & Darcy’s Happy Meeting

Hello everyone! I found this old vignette while digging through my files recently. I posted it online years ago. I can’t remember when, but I have a vague recollection of wanting something easy and happy. I’ve cleaned it up a bit, but I warn you, I did then things I never would now, namely head-hopping …

Up the Garden Path

This month’s theme had me thinking that garden scenes don’t feature very often in my books, and that’s probably because ornamental gardens are rather too close to the house. Not much chance for privacy, for meaningful talks (and hopefully a swoon-worthy kiss, or several) if our dear characters are strolling under Lady Catherine’s windows or Miss …

Up (or Down?) the Garden Path with Anne de Bourgh

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 …

We Have Mary King to Thank – Part 3, by Jack Caldwell Greetings, everyone. Jack Caldwell here. Here is Part 3 of our story. Last week, we learned a new word: OBNOXIOUSEST. Well, I think it’s a new word. If “obnoxious” means “extremely unpleasant”, I suppose “obnoxiousest (obnoxious-est)” means “supremely unpleasant,” or something like that. …
