I thought i read someplace about a giveaway? I have not been able to find area on site to apply for it where would i go?
Hi, Patricia. Yes, I have a giveaway going in honor of the one year anniversary of the release of my first novel, “The Darcys of Pemberley.” See the August 1st post. Here’s a direct link, and good luck!
Met you at the NW Book Fair and so enjoyed the Jane Austen Gang! Your book, The Darcy’s of Pemberley is just excellent! Killing off Mr. Collins in the first chapter (oops, spoiler alert) rated a “hey, yeah” from my husband. I was so excited to hear the “voice” of our favorite characters in your books. Great job on both of the books that I read. I see that I have to order Mr. Collin’s Last Supper to continue my immersion into Hertfordshire and Derbyshire! Thank you so much for your wonderful writing style and ability to capture so beautifully the characters and JA’s style. oh, I was the lady in the scooter.
Hello, Ellen on the scooter! We Austenesque authors had a blast that weekend. I’m glad you enjoyed it too. I’m especially thrilled to hear you liked DOP and found it true to JA’s characters and style. Those were my highest goals, so that’s the finest praise you could give me! Stay tuned for the next installment of my P&P saga, “Return to Longbourn,” coming in early 2013!
I just wanted to let you know that I am so glad that I met you, although briefly, at Jo Ann Fabrics, in line, in Puyallup. You gave me a postcard about your two books “The Darcys of Pemberley” and “For Myself Alone” that included your web page. I got the book “The Darcys of Pemberley” and just finished reading it. It is awesome! You are very good! I am spreading the word to my Sister-in-law, her daughter (very big Pride and Prejudice fans), my mom and church women. I can hardly wait for the next continuing book. Thank you so much!
That’s so great, Neva! Yes, I remember talking to you, and I’m so glad you enjoyed DOP. Thank you for telling your friends and also for getting back to me with your comments. Maybe we’ll meet again and I can sign your book! The sequel to DOP – “Return to Longbourn” – will be out in February, so stay tuned. In the meantime, I hope you’ll read “For Myself Alone.” Thanks again for the encouraging report!
Thank you for responding to my comment. Glad you remembered me. I can hardly wait for the sequel and in the meantime will look for “Return to Longbourn”. You are welcome, too! Keep writing!!!
Just to be clear, Neva, “Return to Longbourn” IS the sequel to DOP, which is coming out in Feb. Look for “For Myself Alone” now!
Ooops, my mistake. Will do. Thanks!
