Pantomimes, Pyres and Pee; A Night at the Theatre with Elizabeth Bennet
Mistaken has its fair share of twists and turns, and it never hurts to drop a good plot bombshell in a public place—you know, to maximise the impact on your poor unsuspecting characters. The theatre might seem a clichéd choice of public venue, but in the absence of Netflix or Nando’s, it was popular evening entertainment … Continue reading Pantomimes, Pyres and Pee; A Night at the Theatre with Elizabeth Bennet
Fallen has its Game Face on!
Thanks to Meredith at Austenesque Reviews for hosting the cover reveal for Fallen yesterday. Now that it's out there in the world, I can finally add it here too, for you all to see. What do you think? Didn't the designer, Susan Adriani, do an amazing job? Having Elizabeth front-and-centre of the cover was imperative, … Continue reading Fallen has its Game Face on!
Fallen is (still) coming soon!
As a writer, peace and quiet, solitude, and time to be introspective is essential to me for the creative process. So, imagine my joy when the entire world went into lockdown and I was sealed in my house for four months with both my teenage children and my still-working-full-time-husband and my deadline approaching... 😱. Never fear! … Continue reading Fallen is (still) coming soon!

Befriending Anne
When I republished Mistaken under my own steam, I edited out some scenes to make way for a new epilogue. Here's one, from later in the story, that shows Elizabeth's stalwart attempt to befriend Anne de Bourgh. Enjoy! A happy sight greeted them upon reaching the lawn. Mr Montgomery and a small boy, whom Elizabeth … Continue reading Befriending Anne

Mistaken is an Audiobook!
I started writing Mistaken waaaaaay back in 2012. In the seven years since, I have rewritten it more times that I'd ever like to acknowledge, edited out enough words to constitute an entire second novel, published it twice, had two separate covers designed, and sold more copies than I ever expected was possible. Now, barring … Continue reading Mistaken is an Audiobook!
