Welcome to a new week and a new month! Today, I have a surprise as well as a small snippet (about 400 words) from what I was writing this past week. I also have this gorgeous song and well-done video that I found. Josh Groban, the singer, is among my favourites. (I have lots of favourites in many genres. 🙂 )

The title of the song will go with the bit of story I plan to share, so stay tuned to see if you can make the connection. However, first, I want to share a little bit of writing news. I really don’t have a lot to share today, so it shouldn’t take long.
Master of Longbourn is still with my final editor. I expect to have that back later this week to begin working on last fixes, and then I can get a preorder set up. I’m wavering between a June 21 and June 28 release day. I guess it will depend on how much fixing I need to do when I get the manuscript back. 🙂
Tomorrow, Tuesday, June 5, 2018, I will be revealing the cover for Master of Longbourn at Austen Authors. I will also be sharing some about how I created my dear Mr. Collins. 🙂 I really do like him — my version of him, that is. Kitty is one lucky girl — truly! I think you’ll agree when you finally get to read the whole story.
And that’s it. I have no other writing news to share with you. Amazing, huh? 😀 This week, I intend to start considering what I will be publishing next. Will it be a sequel to Henry: To Prove Himself Worthy or will it be another Touches of Austen story (like His Beautiful Bea) inspired this time by either Pride and Prejudice or Sense and Sensibility or will it be something else entirely? Oh, it’s like looking into a box of chocolates and not knowing which one to select! So many delicious options! 🙂 Speaking of sweet things…
Here’s the surprise: Today is my youngest son’s birthday. So, in honour of him, I am giving away on a first come, first serve basis 5 copies of the two books I mentioned above. Just click the links, and the first five blog readers who do will be able to download the books. (Links expire next Monday)
While I may not know what I will be writing next, one thing I know beyond a shadow of a doubt is that this week, I will continue working on Delighting Mrs. Bennet. The following snippet is from what I wrote on Friday and will not be posting until August 2! Yes, I am that far ahead, which is why it is time to start thinking about a non-blog story.
Ready to make a connection between song title and story? If so, read on.
