Heigh-ho, and Merry Christmas (or Happy Hanukkah)! I’m back today with the final excerpt from Mr. Darcy Steals a Kiss, as well as a giveaway. But first, I thought I’d share a bit about the historical backstory. As you know, authors often get lost in this time-suck vortex known as the Research Rabbit Hole. Sometimes …
Howdy from my corner of the world! How is everyone holding up this blustery December? Our weather here in Western Oregon has been predictably wet. Gray. Cold. But mostly wet. Sigh. Which is why I have been enjoying working on this bit of fluff this winter as a diversion from all things gray and yucky. …

ATTENTION AUDIOPHILES! I’m so excited to tell you the news: Fitzwilliam Darcy in His Own Words is now available in your favorite format! And the best news is that it’s in the actual voice so many of you have come to recognize as the personification of Mr. Darcy: the voice of the incomparable Harry Frost! …
It’s here at last! I’m excited and proud to introduce my latest novel to you: Fitzwilliam Darcy in His Own Words. When one online friend heard that my new book was coming out on Star Wars Day (“May the 4th be with you.”), she said she fully expected it to be a Pride and Prejudice / Star …
The day is finally here: the cover reveal for Fitzwilliam Darcy in His Own Words! Next to the actual launch, the cover reveal is the most exciting part of bringing a new book out into the world… at least for me. My mom was an artist, and so I very naturally developed an interest in …
For this month, the theme at Austen Variations is Sonnets and Bonnets. I intended to write a poem, but that is easier said than done. I have a ghost of a poem written, but I think it will require more work before I can allow anyone to look at it. So this is a choice …
Happy March! This month, some of us will be posting on the theme of COMEUPPANCE, which is defined as “something unpleasant regarded as just punishment.” And who is more deserving of it than Lady Catherine? In P&P, we know she gets her just punishment when Darcy defies her edict that he must marry Anne. But …
Hello everyone. I hope you’ve all recovered from the icy weather and the blackouts by now. It seems everything has been conspiring to make our lives more difficult in the past year. Let’s hope February will be a turning point and things will start looking up. The theme of the month on Austen Variations is …
I already did one post on this month’s theme, but I just couldn’t let LEAP into LOVE slip by without tying it to my novel LEAP of HOPE. The two were practically made for each other. The colors even match! Besides, February 29th is kind of a bonus day, so I figured it deserved a bonus …
