The day is finally here! Maybe some of you have been waiting impatiently for Murder at Northanger Abbey to come out. Believe me, I have too! Usually I underestimate how long it will take to get everything done and I’m scrambling at the end. So for this book, I decided to be smart and allow …
Cover Reveal for “Murder at Northanger Abbey” by Shannon Winslow
TA DA! Here it is: Murder at Northanger Abbey. Isn’t the cover luscious? And what fun I had writing this book! I’d never written a murder mystery before, but that seemed the only choice for a sequel to Northanger Abbey. So I went for it, taking an unconventional approach. You see, unlike most writers of the …
Drinks, Desserts, and a Free Short Story!
My Dear Austen Friends ~ To say it’s been a strange & stressful past few months would be a serious understatement (at least in our house!), but I definitely warmed to the idea of sharing some recipes in May and just had to share a few on the blog. Here’s hoping the selection I’ve included …
Now I’m in trouble…
Uh, oh. Now I’m in trouble! You can throw rotten fruit, but no death threats, okay? 😉 I like writing happy books.

Double Dessert – or – What to Do With a Dozen Eggs
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 …
Yet More Proposal Scenes by Jack Caldwell #3
Greetings, everyone. Jack Caldwell here. This month, our theme is “Will You?” That’s right, it’s a month full of proposals, the good, the bad, and the ugly! Most will probably melt your pudding, but you might just see a stinker in the bouquet. We all need to laugh, right? Okay, I didn’t write the above. …
A Proposal Scene by Shannon Winslow
I thought at first that a theme like “proposals,” would be easy. After all, there’s at least one proposal in all my books, just as in Jane Austen’s. Right? And if I wrote P&P variations, there would be no difficulty (or mystery). The proposals would be between Darcy and Elizabeth and we would all know …
