Welcome to My Brand New Blog

Welcome, welcome, come in, look around. I know there's so much to see. I hope you enjoy it. Have a glass of champagne, there's tea and lemonade as well, if you prefer, have a little gnosh, take your time, browse.








 I want to thank you all so much for coming.  This really means the world to me. It's such a great feeling to share this will all of you, my friends, who've come to mean so much to me over the last few years.


We're here today, not only to celebrate the opening of my brand new author blog, but to celebrate the fact that I am now an author.  Yes, finally, after going the ropes in New York and finding no success, I decided to take my writing life into my own hands and self-publish my titles to Kindle.  As most of you know, it was a really tough decision, but one I knew was the right one to make.  I love my books almost as much as I love The Monster, and want to share them with the world.

This enterprise was fraught with great difficulty, as I am not even remotely computer literate, so I would like to publicly thank my mentor in all things formatting -- J. Bridget Chicoine.  Without her help, I would still be a sniveling, groveling mess.  Also, the several ladies who read my manuscripts and gave me the critiques I needed -- Lois Moss, Francine Howarth, Liza Salerno, Bridget Chicoine, and Bev Nickelson.  Thanks ladies, I owe you two!

For those of you who don't know much about my writing, these are Regency romances.  And I stress the romance.  None of my work contains sex scenes, although I've been told my way around a lip-lock is really hot. I wanted these to be something you could recommend to your Aunt Helen, your mother-in-law, and not worry if your tween-age daughter picked it up.  However, as they are for adults, I do use some adult themes.  People are people, whether from 1810 or 2010, and I like to write what drives us emotionally when we're on the path to finding love.




And now, without further ado, I give you --



A short story I just had to write.  It's available for $.99 on Amazon. 


And my long awaited release



Now available on Amazon for $2.99. 

If you'll scroll down the blog, you'll be able to find pictures of my characters, actors who I think would be fabulous to portray them.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.  Sometimes, I think a picture is worth more than a thousand words. 

On my sidebar, you'll also note, I have two more titles coming soon, hopefully before Christmas.  And on the top under my header, you'll be able to read the sneak peeks into the books.

So take a gander, look around, enjoy, read, drool over "The Reluctant Grooms" and the women who love them.  I believe I have represented both genders equally.  (Truth to tell, I used to be in love with Haverlane.  Now I think Winsbarren has more than captured my heart.)

Please let me know what you think of my new site.  Feel free to share in the comments.  I'll be around all day.  And thanks again, so much for coming.

And if you'd like to leave your email address in the comments, I will send you a version of A WIFE FOR WINSBARREN for your very own.  I've been told I can send my Kindle for PC version to you to download.  My way of saying thanks for stopping by.

Here We Are -- Welcome

Welcome to my brand new blog.  I've finally bitten the bullet and decided to self-publish my Regency romances on Amazon through Kindle, and of course, I needed a blog to keep all my gentle readers up to date with what I'm doing. 

I've been working on it steadily and I hope you like all the added features.  Across the top I've given you the first pages of the stories that are written, and also those that are in progress.  For those of you who would like to write Regencies, I will also be adding more to my Regency Links in the side bar.


I'll also be doing book reviews on Regency romances, some old, some new, some forgotten.  I'll try to post something at least once a month.

So, come by often and leave a comment. 
Happy Reading!
