I have a heap of Felicia and Robins written, one of which is waiting for me to do the cover - it's a set of short stories, covering a period between more major adventures, while they stay with Sir Godfrey. And I am writing a Jane and Caleb at the moment. I was on hiatus for ages after my mother had a stroke, and I was finding writing very difficult. I finished off a couple of started Regencies recently though - used NaNoWriMo to kickstart myself - and having gained confidence that I CAN write again, returned to Jane and Caleb.

the name book - at last!

Technically speaking, the first name book ... but the one I've been putting most of the research effort into over the last 8 years, and struggling to format.


Names in Europe from the Etruscans to 1600 – whether for authors, family research or just for fun, this is a name book with a difference. UK https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B089DJGVM US https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089DJGVM3

“of course the real gentry are much more understated than people of our class, Mrs. Elton, because they know better than to over-egg the pudding!”
Sarah J. Waldock, Jane and the Bow Street Runner

“Being a Christian and no half pagan wallowing in superstition I have no qualms whatsoever about a child being near me,”
Sarah J. Waldock, Jane and the Bow Street Runner

“And while we are on the subject that fine lustre waistcoat of yours is woven with a mix of cotton and mohair, and if we are busy quoting the Bible out of context, that is specifically banned in two separate places in Leviticus, rather like eating the mussels you were consuming with such relish at dinner last night so I pray you do not try to intimidate a clergyman’s granddaughter with the Bible.”
Sarah J. Waldock, Jane and the Bow Street Runner
