What Mr Darcy Knew? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
With so much going on these last couple of weeks, I’ve been a little lax in my posting on Substack. A Different Impression wrapped up earlier this week, and I think we’re still on track for an October 13 release. I haven’t adjusted the preorder yet, but I will once I’m certain that will be the actual release date.My Give a Book. Get a Book. giveaway also wrapped up, with nearly $1,000 in donations submitted through the form—and a couple of people donated separately as well. I’m still a little am
