Yes! The new book has a title. The winning suggestion, The Price of Pride, came from the amazing J. Dawn King, an Austenesque author with quite the talent for titling. It was a tough choice, let me tell you, with all those fantastic ideas from readers! I had to form a little focus group to …
Rosings Park preview #1, by Jack Caldwell Greetings, everyone. Jack Caldwell here. Finally, after over a decade of promises, I have completed my follow-up to THE THREE COLONELS: Jane Austen’s Fighting Men. After much deliberation, I have entitled it ROSINGS PARK: A Story of Jane Austen’s Fighting Men. Just kidding. The first thing I came …
Today, I had hoped to be announcing the audio book release of Murder at Northanger Abbey, but it’s still awaiting final approval. I’m expecting that it will make it out before Halloween, though. Either way, I will invite you to read it in some form during this season, which would be particularly appropriate since the …
Yes, the new book is still coming, and I need your help! It still doesn’t have a title (more on that later) and has one scene left to be written, but it’s time to start sharing the early chapters because the publication date is December 2. Yay! This is the high-angst plot bunny where Elizabeth …

It is always a relief to know some things will never change. October 7, 1814 Elizabeth and Jane spent a week complete spent at Netherfield, enough time to be well acquainted with the new denizens and to declare them welcome friends—and enough to satisfy Mama’s desire for a ‘proper’ length stay, whatever that meant. …
Hello everyone! Here is the conclusion to my short Persuasion-inspired story. You can find Part I here and Part II here. Thanks for reading! Lucy Part III: October (An autumn stroll settles it all) Elizabeth Elliot would never admit to feeling desperate, but desperate she was. After two months, she was no closer to finding a husband …
Ship to Shore is officially available in audio! The talented Elizabeth Grace is narrating, and this is extra impressive as she is actually English, but she does a great job with an American accent – as you will see in the video below. To celebrate the release, I’m giving away 3 audio codes to listen …
Dinner at Netherfield turns interesting The storm increased its severity after the local pompous knight departed with many bows and flowery, irritating words, giving Darcy a welcome excuse to keep to his room, reading Udolpho. Warm stained paneling, substantial wooden furniture and fine fabrics surrounded him—it was probably the best of the guest chambers …
