Website Contest Winner!
Thanks so much to everyone who weighed in with amusing Pink/Austen combos. Among my favorites were: — Lady Catherine de Burgh duking it out with the Dowager Duchess of Dovedale; — Charlotte Lucas and Laura Grey putting their shadowy heads together; — Bingley and Miles as BFFs (can’t you just see that?); — likewise, “Mr.…

Read MoreMea Culpa– and Weekly Reading
Many apologies! While I’ve been hunkered down over the 1920’s book revisions, many things that were meant to occur on the website this week didn’t. Coming soon will be: the belated announcement of the latest website contest winner; the Pinkorama contest (get your Peeps ready!); a book tour recap; and, in a special Teaser Tuesday,…

Read MoreAuthor Tour
Revisions on the Kenya book have been keeping me from doing my full book tour write-up (next week!), but, in the meantime, here’s an incredibly kind account of last week’s Ann Arbor reading from AAR’s Linnie Gayl, including a write up of the most crucial Q&A….

I’ve spent many years looking for Mary Stewart read-alikes and was lucky enough to have been given one by my college roommate this past week.

Read MoreContest!
What with everything else going on, I’ve completely forgotten to post reminders about the current website contest, in which we combine Austen with Pink for the most amusing combinations.
