I’m thinking that as long as there was chocolate and a good book or movie involved, it was a winner. If your sweetheart was snuggled up beside you too, so much the better! This month, some …

Celebrating Valentine’s Day at Pemberley

Mr. Darcy put down his book and his face lighted as his wife entered the library. “So, you have found me,” he greeted her with a smile. “That is not a matter of wonder. Where else would you be likely to be found, such a dark wet day as this, save the library?” “Very true, …

Dangerous Magic: Cover Reveal

It’s snowing here in the South of England with blizzard-type conditions, so this would be a great time for Darcy and Elizabeth to be stuck indoors together in an isolated hut somewhere where they would have to sleep under the only blanket if they wanted to stay warm…  In any case, our current storm is …

This month, the Austen Variations authors are taking a moment to look back at 2020 and forward to 2021. Like most of you, 2020 was not a great year for me. Living through a global pandemic, adjusting to working remotely for the first time, and trying to write a book proved to be a losing …

The Same, Only Different

I’ve participated in a couple of JAFF (Jane Austen Fan Fiction) author events recently. And in preparing for them, I realized that, although we all share the same love of Jane Austen’s work, my writing philosophy is a little different than most JAFF authors, and my novels reflect that. Doing things my own way may …
