Greetings, everyone. Jack Caldwell here. I was asked by at least one fan if my latest novel would be out for Christmas. Well, ho-ho-ho and call me Santa, because here it is! So, what do you think? Ellen Pickels did her usual fantastic job, didn’t she? BROTHER OF THE BRIDE is …
Happy November—and for those of you who celebrate the holiday, Happy American Thanksgiving! I am thankful to be part of a community that takes such pleasure in Jane Austen’s works.

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 …
