Love & Scandal

By Donna Lea Simpson

Nothing sells like love & scandal…

Collette Jardiniere writes of passion and seduction, but has experienced neither. Her pseudonymous novel, The Last Days of a Rake, has shocked Victorian society and become a runaway bestseller. Infamous rouge, Charles Jameson is “revealed” as the author, and Collette is outraged when the cad does little to curtail the gossip.

Intrigued by the… Continue

Photos versus Book covers versus Cartoon Depictions

As every good author does, I have numerous social networking spots, Book Blogs among them (it's my favorite, but I don't speak of that on Facebook or MySpace). I've used a couple of different photos of myself, as well as my current book cover, and now a cartoon depiction of myself as my representative.

Which is best, I wonder? I decided on the cartoon depiction right now because it represents my new short 'do - which I looooove - best. It's a little overflattering though, and I feel… Continue

Exciting things to come!

I'm so excited... spring is most definitely here (tulips and daffodils and all) and a robin is nesting above my front porch light. But my writing is so much fun right now, too.

I've finished Book Three of the Lady Anne books and it's been approved. I've got another three book Regency romance proposal at my editor's, and I'm working on my own secret pet project. And I need to finish Awaiting the Magic for all those patient readers who are still, a year and a half later, asking… Continue

It’s been a long month. I had in quick succession, the release of Lady Anne and the Howl in the Dark, finishing touches on Lady Anne and the Gypsy Curse (Book Three) and copy edit corrections on Lady Anne and the Ghost’s Revenge (Book Two).

All. At. Once.

And at the same time 25 (twenty-five) blogs to contribute to.

Whew… so I’m just beginning to catch my breath.

I want to say to readers… I am planning some exciting giveaways in… Continue
