I was bored and perhaps struggling with a bit of writers' block, and I decided to see if the AI Overlords might give me something to spark the muse. I won't use AI to do my writing for me (as if!) but I'm not too proud to look for a prompt to get my own … Continue reading ChatBotNot
Hey babe, what's your sign? No, really, what's your sign? Do you believe in astrology? Do you read your horoscope, even if just for fun. For the record, I don't believe in astrology, although I do conform a bit too well to my astrological sign for my comfort. Still, I'm not supposed to get on … Continue reading Written in the Stars
One of the things I love about researching for my stories is finding those little details, those glimpses into everyday life, that don't always make it into the big history books. Things like... what to have for breakfast! I knew that Chelsea buns had a long and delicious history in London, and so I decided … Continue reading Chelsea Buns
It is far too long since I've written anything here. It started with being busy. Writing, reading, editing, beta-reading, and all that, eats up my time.

The book has been past my editor and a small army of intrepid beta readers, and my fabulous cover artist has worked her usual magic. This new … Continue reading Whodunnit? A New Mystery is Coming
I've been busy these last few weeks, but I'm thrilled to announce I have a new book out, a special story just for Christmas. It is called A Midwinter Night's Dream, and it is available on Amazon and is free to read on Kindle Unlimited. I have posted about it at Austen Authors this week, … Continue reading Some Christmas Magic – A New Book
We were recently in Newfoundland on holiday, and we decided to make the grand trek up the Great Northern Peninsula to L’Anse aux Meadows. Here, at the end of the known world (well, it felt like it), where the road ends and the ocean begins, is a remarkable site: the only known Viking settlement in … Continue reading Literature and Discovery – L’Anse aux Meadows

I'm delighted to be part of this year's Austen in August. This is a month of guest posts, roundtable conversations, give-aways, and all things fun and Austenesque at The Book Rat. I decided to pen a short story for readers to enjoy. It's a bit - or a lot - silly, and hopefully a lot … Continue reading Ye Gods! Austen in August
