Author: Leenie Brown
Leenie Brown fell in love with Jane Austen's works when she first read Sense and Sensibility followed immediately by Pride and Prejudice in her early teens. As the second of five daughters and an avid reader, she has always loved to see where her imagination takes her and to play with and write about the characters she meets along the way. In 2013, these two loves collided when she stumbled upon the world of Jane Austen Fan Fiction. A year later, in 2014, she began writing her own Austen-inspired stories and began publishing them in 2015. Leenie lives in Nova Scotia, Canada with her two teenage boys and her very own Mr. Brown (a wonderful mix of all the best of Darcy, Bingley and Edmund with healthy dose of the teasing Mr. Tillney and just a dash of the scolding Mr. Knightley).
Music Monday: Christmas Bride, Ray Coniff and Singers
Ah, this song brings back happy memories. It was on one of the albums in my parents’ record collection, and I played it often. Even as a child I was a lover of romance. 🙂

No Other Choice, Chapters 4-6
Yesterday, I hit publish on this novella! And…there were no issues, this time, getting it on Amazon, so the book is available to purchase on Kobo and Kindle as well as iBooks. There are a few more channels that will become available, including Nook, over the next few days. The print version is in the review process, and since it is the holidays, it might take a bit longer than normal to get that completed. However, I still intend to make three chapters available to be read each Saturday until it is complete.
So from now until next Saturday, Chapters 4-6 are available to read at this link.
There will also be a giveaway of a Kindle copy on austenauthors.net this Tuesday.
Music Monday: Acapella Christmas Medley, Greg Sykes
This past Saturday, I and my husband went to a World Vision Canada event — A High Valley Acoustic Christmas. It was a wonderful evening, and, of course, featured the Canadian country group of the year (and a personal favourite of mine), High Valley. However, it opened with a performance by Greg Sykes, which included the song in today’s post.

No Other Choice, Chapters 1-3
Aside from a few last edits and a proofread, the manuscript for No Other Choice, book two fo the Choices series, is complete. AND that means, it is time to start letting my readers take a look at it. I will post a link to the book each Saturday. I am not actually posting the story on my
Here is how it will work since I am not actually posting the story on my blog this time but rather on the book’s pressbook.com site:
- I will post a link to the book each Saturday.
- When you click the link, it will take you to the chapters that are available to be read for that week.
- Each set of chapters will only be available for reading for a week and then a new set will become available.
The story is also posting in two chapter increments at darcyandlizzy.com. This forum requires you to register, but it is completely free and will give you access to many great stories, not just mine.
