Wintertime stories
This is just a fun page about my two upcoming wintertime stories that will be out in the world in time for the 2024 winter holidays. One story centers around two lovers in dangerous waters in the Venetian lagoon—while the other involves a pre-wedding murder. Both are Gilded Age stories set in the Veneto—
the regions in northeastern Italy where my ancestors (and some current family) hail.
This is my inspiration gallery for the 1890 Carnevale season story
set in Burano, an island in the Venetian lagoon.
Fun with an Edwardian Advent Calendar
Jacqui Lawson is a wonderful source for the classiest ecards on the web! The last few years, they've offered interactive advent calendars and this year, the Edwardian era is their theme. Besides the daily December reveal in the lead up to Christmas, there's PC games, puzzles and books, and more fun activities than ever before–from decorating your Christmas tree to weaving your very own tapestries–all set amidst a country manor in the English countryside.
