Today we have a special feature – an interview with Nikki Payne, whose book Pride and Protest is now available for pre-order! I’m so excited about this diverse retelling from a long-time member of the JAFF community. Actually it’s two interviews – a written one with questions from our authors and an amazing video interview …

Names, names, names
Hello everyone! I have a different sort of post today. It’s not a new story. Sorry! I am actively writing and editing, though, and I’ll have ‘interesting news’ later this year. 🙂 Instead, I thought I’d talk about names, specifically where I find them. I do get around to talking about The Marriage Bargain, including …

Finery and Folly: a Lydia Story by Diana Birchall
“When Lydia went away, she promised to write very often and very minutely to her mother and Kitty; but her letters were always long expected, and always very short. Those to her mother contained little else than that they were just returned from the library, where such and such officers had attended them, and where …
Something Persuasion-ish
Talk of Persuasion is all the rage these days. 🙂 Whereas P&P calls to mind grand estates and balls and long walks in the prettyish wildernesses of private gardens, when I think of Persuasion, I think mostly of rugged seascapes and of Bath. A few years ago, I wrote a duet of second-chance loves stories …
A little more magic – Pride & Prejudice style
Yes, my new magical Pride & Prejudice variation is still coming! I’ve finally got the ending in hand, and hopefully I’ll have a finished manuscript soon. It’s taken longer than I would have liked, so I’m excited to finally be getting there. Anyway, here’s another excerpt from it. This follows shortly after the previous excerpts …
Diversity in Regency England: Indigenous People From Canada
Hello everyone! I’m going to start this post a little differently by doing a land acknowledgement. In Canada, and elsewhere, land acknowledgements are used to recognise and honour the Indigenous people who live or have lived on the land we are currently occupying. As I sit in my home in Toronto, I acknowledge that I …
Celebrating Pride Month
Hello everyone, I remember when my daughter was making her way through primary and secondary school, each month we would get an email that listed all the events, holidays, and groups being celebrated. Inevitably, there would be many. June is one of those months, and in this post and another in about ten days, I …
