At times it seemed like all I did for those 4 days at the Dolphin was eat and talk. No doubt I did an incredible amount of both, but I did have time to absorb information at the workshops and glean from conversations. Some served to cement ideas/thoughts already known,...
Whew! It has been a crazy 2 weeks! Actually, more than 2 weeks since we left home on the 18th of July and did not get back home until August 2. I honestly do not know where to begin in recounting my adventures. We did so much as a family...
What a hoot! I opened up the various guest blogs I wrote during the virtual tour for the My Dearest Mr. Darcy release and this one was next in line, perfectly falling on the schedule when I will be crazy busy at the RWA conference. Time, and how to manage...
Today, as this posts, I am hanging out with my family in the deepest part of the South, probably dying from the oppressive humidity or being attacked by a foot-long bug of some kind. Still, I am sure I am having a great time! Hopefully all of you are watching...
It isn’t an accident that I decided that this particular blog written while on the virtual tour for My Dearest Mr. Darcy would be reposted on my website today, the 19th of July. When I wrote this essay it was partly in response to those naysayers who criticize my romantic,...
Hey all! Time to post an update of general happenings in the life of Sharon! In truth life has been fairly quiet for me lately. But, I have learned that “quiet” is a relative term. I am always doing something, after all. So here goes…. Today I am over at...
Time to share another one of the guest blogs written for the My Dearest Mr. Darcy virtual tour. This one was for Seductive Musings and I chose to talk about marriage as it was in the long ago days of yore! Enjoy….. Perhaps I am unusual, but I have always...
Months ago I was interviewed for an article in a lovely local magazine called Lifestyle. This free publication is distributed to nearly every household in the Visalia, CA area. It was an honor to be approached and to chat with Diane Slocum about my journey and the Darcy Saga. I...
A shout out to my friend Jeane who has kept her wonderful blog devoted to the 2005 adaptation of Pride & Prejudice running for 3 years now! Happy Anniversary Jeane! I love Jeane’s blog and am SO happy that she has diligently followed the actors and other artists involved with...
This is a blog I wrote for Fresh Fiction as part of my virtual book tour for My Dearest Mr. Darcy. Once again, as with most of the blogs I wrote, I turned to history and the research necessary to bring the Regency world alive. Here, as you have probably...
This was a guest blog I wrote while on my virtual book tour for My Dearest Mr. Darcy for the website Hist-fic Chick. “Hunting Down History” is something I have to do all the time as diligently as possible. Here is a bit on how that process goes for me,...
I promised to share the guest blogs I wrote and posted during my virtual book tour for My Dearest Mr. Darcy. I will pop one in from time to time over the subsequent month, starting with this one that I wrote for Blodeuedd at Book Girl of Mur-y-Castell. I hope...
Thanks to my dear friend May for sending this to me. This is a hysterical humorous poem read by an Australian comedian named Ronnie Taheny. I have never heard of her, but in this one bit she is very funny. I had to share. **WARNING: There is one bad word!...
My new friend Misty is hosting a month-long Jane Austen extravaganza at her blog, The Book Rat. Several posts a day will be added for the entire 30 days of June including reviews, guest essays, loads of giveaways, poems, letters to Jane, etc. Over thirty different Jane-lovers have been invited...
Last night was the extravaganza planned as a benefit for the Tulare County library by the Friends of the Library Association. I was honored to partake as one of 10 local area authors present to sign and sell our books.The arrangement in the enormous library was fantastic. We each had...
