Locally I am kept pretty busy with various groups and fun events. My newest venture is the Fresno Area Regency England Fellowship that I have begun with my pal Carrie Flores. Yesterday an online magazine very popular in the area where I live cast the spotlight on our fledgling group....
I purchased these for my daughter and I to wear for Jane Fest, which has sadly been canceled, but we will wear them for other events. Aren’t they fabulous? Found on Etsy from Historical Fashions, Hour Glass Designs, and Hedges8. Amazing garments!
I received this from Pamela, a reader in Oregon, who has recently discovered my novels but been a great supporter and encouragement to me. I just had to share! Thanks Pamela!
For some twenty plus years I have written a family Christmas letter to enclose in my holiday cards that summed up the events of the year for those friends and family members we do not keep in constant contact with. Most years it would be a struggle to come up...
Today is MY day! Totally selfish I shall be! Spending the day doing what I most enjoy doing – WRITING!! Somewhere in there I will visit with my lovely daughter, who already took me to lunch and a movie yesterday, and tonight my husband will treat me to a nice...

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...
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...
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...
