    Not Your Average Occupations

    "It is amazing to me," said Bingley, "that young ladies can have patience to be so very accomplished as they all are... They all paint tables, cover screens, and net purses."

    To Be Transported

    When I decided to write Regency romance, I chose to emulate the writing style of that era because I want my readers to connect deeply with my characters and their stories, and I believe that is most likely to be achieved when the time and place which I am describing is as authentic as possible.
