Guess what! I am eager and a bit terrified but this is so close to hitting that home stretch! I am putting up chapter 1 now, and have scheduled chapter 2 for next week. I am still editing, so if you catch something, that’s why. I still have one more read through by the editor …
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 …
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 …
My newest book baby, How to Fall in Love with a Man You Thought You Hated, was released to the big wide world TODAY! You can find it almost anywhere you buy books, in paperback and e-book, and soon in audio. This book is light and fun and filled with flirtation and banter – one …

In P&P, we know she gets her just punishment when Darcy defies her edict that he must marry Anne. But …
I hope you had a lovely Valentine’s Day, finding some appropriate way to celebrate, even in these difficult times. I’m thinking that as long as there was chocolate and a good book or movie involved, it was a winner. If your sweetheart was snuggled up beside you too, so much the better! This month, some …
I’ve participated in a couple of JAFF (Jane Austen Fan Fiction) author events recently. And in preparing for them, I realized that, although we all share the same love of Jane Austen’s work, my writing philosophy is a little different than most JAFF authors, and my novels reflect that.

The first episode, “St. Nicholas Day at Pemberley,” was published on December 6, and told of a Rich Jane Austen Christmas, set at Pemberley.
