Conceit & Concealment is here! I can’t remember the last time I was this excited about a release. This book is special for me in a lot of ways. It’s the longest book I’ve written, weighing in at a hefty 126,000 words, and I could have gone on longer because it was such fun. Like …
Greetings, everybody! Jack Caldwell here. One of the first novels I wrote was the ground-breaking THE THREE COLONELS, a sequel to both Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility. It was also the first book in my Jane Austen’s Fighting Men Series. I’ve have released the second book in that series, THE LAST ADVENTURE OF …
We have a new month and a new theme here at Austen Variations! You’ve heard that April showers bring May flowers. I’m counting on it. We’ve certainly paid our dues here in Seattle with our wettest October through April on record. Now we deserve flowers in equally generous proportions. With that hope in mind, here’s …

(It doesn’t help that I’m also editing my Persuasion sequel, PERSUADED TO SAIL, at the same time!) Anyhow, there’s an interlude in ROSINGS PARK …
My big double launch day is finally here! And I do mean FINALLY. One of these two books has been waiting a very long time for publication. It really started about eight years ago. I’d had about the best fun of my life writing my first two JAFF novels, and now I was diligently pursuing their …
Is there anything more exhilarating than that first, heady flush of love? The world becomes a wonderful place and life is suddenly full of possibility. Birds swoop against the bluest of skies, singing a cheery accompaniment as the new lovers embark on a romantic adventure. Of course, if one doesn’t choose wisely, heartache will eventually follow …
The Cajun Cheesehead Chronicles by Jack Caldwell Hello, everybody. Jack Caldwell here. Long-term readers of my work know I have a peculiar sense of humor. Every now and then, my muse falls victim to it. Like today. So, instead of writing some romantic piece that will leave you in a puddle of mush, you get …
