Well, after all the comments I received to last month’s blog, I feel I must give you a bit more. Since this Darcy is in a different frame of mind, I immediately knew a letter from him would not be quite the length of the original. Also, as most of you can recite what was…

What if? by Bronwen Chisholm
As you must know, I prefer “what if” stories when it comes to our dear couple. One that I have considered several times but have not actually published is “What if Elizabeth had interrupted Darcy during his proposal?” For your enjoyment, here is one take I have played with over the years. (Please forgive any…
May I Attempt to Persuade You? by Bronwen Chisholm
“Have you seen the new Persuasion movie?” has been asked of me by nearly everyone I know who has any knowledge of Jane Austen. In fact, having a weekend to myself recently, I had decided to do just that when I received yet another text asking this question. Amusingly, I was finally able to do…
A Delightful Visit, by Bronwen Chisholm
“It was a delightful visit;-perfect, in being much too short.” – Emma As I have mentioned several times over the last year, my husband and I are now empty-nesters. Our youngest daughter was home for exactly one month before taking off for her summer internship. The next time we see her will be when we…
Throw a Dog a Bone, by Bronwen Chisholm
Since beginning blogging about four years ago, I have often mentioned that my family does not hold my love of Jane Austen, Regency England, or period pieces. Even so, 2022 seems to be the year that they have decided to make an attempt. Actually, my daughter began by watching Bridgerton with me last year, finally…
An Update and Another Visit to Longbourn, by Bronwen Chisholm
I cannot believe April is over already. What a whirlwind of a month––including days where we experienced at least three seasons in less than twenty-four hours. So here we are in May (the lusty month of May as they sing in Camelot, which I happened to go see last Sunday at our regional theatre), and…
Empty-Nesters, by Bronwen Chisholm
I have mentioned before that my husband and I are now empty-nesters. The latest adventure in this new lifestyle is reconnecting on home projects. With the kids gone and my husband counting the months to his retirement, we have been making a priority list of what needs to be done to our home. Painting and…
What are young men to rocks and mountains? by Bronwen Chisholm
In my blog last month, I mentioned that I am having my website rebuilt. For the last month, I have been compiling material to be used on the site: blogs, bios, pictures. Oh, the pictures! Of course, I began searching through my photos to see what would work, and my first stop was the ones…
Missing in Action, by Bronwen Chisholm
**Spoiler alert** If you have not read As a Proper Lady Would or Son of an Earl, some parts of this post may disclose events in those books. The new year has begun––one full month is already in…
A Belated Happy New Year! by Bronwen Chisholm
Hoping that you all had a safe, blessed, and happy holiday season. Mine was filled with old and new traditions including my first year participating in the Austenesque Jolabokaflod. I received these fabulous books for research. 🙂 Of course, the baking didn’t get done and not all the lights were hung, the Christmas tree had…

I love Virginia! by Bronwen Chisholm
If you’ve read my bio, you know that I was born and raised in Pennsylvania, a beautiful state in my opinion. I moved from its rolling green hills to eastern North Carolina for a year and a half and was in serious culture shock when everything was flat and brown for at least 10 months…
