Best laid plans. I had hoped to get this out around June 20th, but things didn’t work out. So, I’m putting it on sale at half price after doing a little tweaking to the last two books in the series.

There are so many layers to Darcy’s personality: arrogance, vulnerability, determination, loyalty, honesty to a fault, love of family, pride (sometimes to a fault also), shy, lack of comfort with those he is not acquainted with, a sense of justice, sensitivity, and a lack of tact (i.e. his first proposal to Elizabeth). Like many of… Read the full blog post …

At last, ‘Darcy vs Wickham’ is finally finished. I didn’t realize my first posting was in 2019 until just the other day. My apologies for being so long with this story. And what I find amusing is that it is probably the shortest P&P variation in the Darcy Versus Series. It was just a difficult… Read the full blog post …

Oh, my. The move to Illinois has really slowed things down. Everything is hurry up…and wait. 🙂 Hopefully, my new office will be set up by next week. I’ve done a little writing but not much since my new computer is not even set up. So, everything is a little out of place, needless to… Read the full blog post …
Recently I saw interviews of the cast of Pride and Prejudice 2005 and enjoyed once again the camaraderie of the individuals involved.
