Vote for your Favourite!
I hope this works as it’s my first attempt at a poll here! There were many suggestions, some of which were incredibly creative, but I have had to summarise them down to 7 options. Do please cast your vote (though based on the comments, I don’t think the outcome will be a surprise!) The loveliest…

The Fate of Colonel Fitzwilliam
As you probably know, I have been putting the finishing touches to the final chapters of Desperate Measures (Volume III of A Fair Prospect). Having finally let go of Mr Darcy (see my post of 24th April!), I turned my attention this weekend to the Epilogue which, as you might expect, briefly sums up what…

Desperate Measures and Daunting Decisions
I am finding it a little difficult to let go of Mr Darcy. He was my first love, you see, at the tender age of 15. This was the Mr Darcy of the written word, the original character created in the book of Pride & Prejudice, penned by Jane Austen’s fair hand. Time moves on…

Darcy’s Dilemma – Early Release Date!
I have two very good friends (well, to be fair, I probably have several very good friends, but at this moment in time, I have two particular ones in mind – you will know who you are!) who have an aversion to reading stories that are incomplete. For one of them, it is because she…

Woo Hoo!
And yet again, the lucky thirteen strikes! Late last night (UK time), my title went live on both Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk. I am both terrified and excited by this step-change – all I can hope now is that a few people like it enough to give me positive reviews! Big sigh… now on to sort…

A Slight Anti-Climax
I started to write A Fair Prospect in the summer of 2006. It was a tumultuous time in my life: we had been living in Connecticut for five years, and I was busy planning our marriage blessing (which was taking place back in the UK in July) and to add madness to mayhem we then…

Hello!
I'm Cass, and I write the sort of stories I love to read - heart-warming, character driven and strong on location. I lean heavily towards the upbeat in both my reading and my writing.
As one of my favourite authors, Jane Austen, once wrote, ‘let other pens dwell on guilt and misery’.
