Please give a warm welcome to Christi Corbett, debut author. You’ll remember her guest post here on Weird Stuff Kids Say: Twin Humor. Today she’s here to talk about her new release, Along the Way Home, which is at the top of my must-read list. Take it away, Christi. First, I’d like to give a […]
1. Underwear Let’s face it: this is why you’re here. You should be curious about Victorian underthings, because they were truly weird. 19th-century clothing was so complicated, a lady typically couldn’t dress herself. Before the mid-1800s, her innermost layer was a “shift,” or “chemise,” basically a shin-length shirt. “Drawers” (pantaloons being the American version) became popular in the mid-1800s once Victorian ladies understood […]
To celebrate my upcoming The King of Threadneedle Street blog tour, I’m giving away this Victorian-style genuine freshwater pearl jewelry set, including a 2-strand necklace, 2-strand bracelet, and sterling silver earrings. You see a variety of lavender, silver, and peacock pearls, faceted onyx, and bicone Swarovski crystal beads. The ear hooks are sterling silver. Jewelry making is […]
I loved doing research for my new historical, The King of Threadneedle Street. Shameless litte geek that I am, I enjoyed reading about the 19th-century global economy to write my financial genius hero, Andrew Tilmore. Luckily for you, I’m not blogging about that. I’d like to show you how I wrote my artist character, Alysia Villier. I wanted […]
I’m guest blogging today at Romance Magicians with author M.V. Freeman about The King of Threadneedle Street, my new historical.

What was the hardest […]

I’m guest blogging today with fellow Crimson Romance author Amanda L. V. Shalaby about my historical novel Song for Sophia. She asked me a question that made me realize all the families in my stories are … well, weird. Check out the interview here. Feel free to stop by and say hello.
Some stories are so timeless they are produced over and over. Pride & Prejudice, Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights . . . Last time in Top 10 Desert Island Historical Movies, I picked obscurish period films, hoping I might suggest something new you’d want to see, then email me to discuss it late into the night […]
Today I’m guest blogging at Coffee Time Romance. Lately I’ve talked a lot about the controversial aspects of writing an autistic savant hero, but now it’s time to have some light-hearted fun. Speaking of fun, I had way too much it writing a socially awkward character. He’s a disaster, really, especially when he tries to impress Sophia […]
