Good morning, and I hope you’re safe and well. Thanks for stopping by for a chat. You bring your tea or your coffee, and I’ll bring the snacks. Virtual ones, but hey, what can we do? A while ago, I was searching through Regency cookbooks for some nibbles that could feature in a scene in …
Well, here we are at Chapter Three! I hope you are all staying healthy and well. I keep working away at this beast, trying to make it mind. This week’s offering includes a bit of Elizabeth’s back story, but that will not be the case in every chapter. I think you’ll find that the Bennets …
Uh, oh. Now I’m in trouble! You can throw rotten fruit, but no death threats, okay? 😉 I like writing happy books. But last summer I posted something on Facebook about how much I’d enjoyed writing variations where Mr. Darcy had a brother, and suddenly an evil plot bunny sprung full-grown into life right in …

Welcome to May! Everybody hoped we’d be past this pandemic by now, but that’s not the case for most of us. We’re still living a “new normal” – missing some things we’ve lost, at least temporarily, but learning to rediscover enjoyment in others, especially in simple things like family time, reading a good book (of …
For the last Will You…? post of April, I’ve written a bit of a quarantine story. I hope you’ll forgive me for writing a Pride and Prejudice love story out of our current predicament, but it was what was in my head. I’ve been crazy busy between the book release and a few courses I’ve …
