We Have Mary King to Thank – Part 1
We Have Mary King to Thank – Part 1, by Jack Caldwell Greetings, everyone. Jack Caldwell here.

Pride & Prejudice… and Fossils?
Want to a sneak peek of my new novella? It’s getting towards the finish line, though it’s looking more like a short novel than a novella at the moment. It’s a low-angst, high-banter look at what Darcy might have been like if his parents had still been alive when he met Elizabeth. If he hadn’t …

Dangerous Magic: Cover Reveal
It’s snowing here in the South of England with blizzard-type conditions, so this would be a great time for Darcy and Elizabeth to be stuck indoors together in an isolated hut somewhere where they would have to sleep under the only blanket if they wanted to stay warm… In any case, our current storm is …
