You all are wonderful. Reading your reactions to the Ivy & Intrigue outtakes made my day. I wish I could give a copy of Ivy & Intrigue to everyone, but since I can’t, the novella goes to… … Kiley! (of Comment #15) Congrats, Kiley! Just email me with your snail mail and I’ll pop the [...]

In honor of the holiday season, I’ll be giving away one copy of the print version of Ivy & Intrigue. Below, resurrected from the archives, are the Ivy & Intrigue outtakes. Which is your favorite?

Christmas came early for me. Ivy & Intrigue: A Very Selwick Christmas is #1 on Amazon’s Regency bestseller list! Thanks so much to everyone who put it there!

I have just discovered that the print versions of both Ivy & Intrigue and Two L are part of Amazon’s four for three deal– buy four eligible items, get the least expensive free. This makes me think fondly of my year in England and the Waterstone’s three-for-two deals. I discovered Forever Amber and Bill Bryson’s [...]

There’s something of a book pile-up on my kitchen table right now. Not only are there ten copies of the book version of Ivy & Intrigue, just waiting to find a good home, but a surprise package arrived yesterday, containing ARCs (advance review copies) of The Garden Intrigue.

My redoubtable web mistress has just made a number of additions to the website. In addition to the Printable Book List and the Recommended Reading Order, you can now find a Pink Cheat Sheet on the Books page, listing the who, what, where and when of each book. Because, let’s face it, once you get [...]

While pulling up my old Ivy & Intrigue files the other day, I stumbled across a file I’d forgotten: the Ivy & Intrigue outtakes. For a hundred page novella, it yielded a surprising number of outtakes. Here, for your amusement, are the cream of the crop.

Anyone who says self-pub is easy is clearly more technologically adept than I am. Having just spent most of yesterday afternoon wrestling with Amazon and B&N’s self-publication systems, I have both good news and bad news. The good news is that Ivy and Intrigue: A Very Selwick Christmas is available for download on Amazon and [...]

I know it’s tacky to re-gift, but I figured you wouldn’t mind this one. Two years ago, I decided it would be fun to write a novella as a holiday gift to my readers. So I did. Back in 2008, I posted the novella in serial form on the website, chapter by chapter, largely to [...]
