Katherine asked Mimi Matthews:

How do you decide what is "appropriate" or "not appropriate" for the more sensual scenes in your books? Friends turned me on to them recently and I have gobbled them up! I love how you bring sensuality to the story in a real way while holding the lines of propriety for the time period and not slipping into full descriptor sex scenes.

Mimi Matthews Hi Katherine! I'm so glad you've been enjoying my novels :) Overall, I try to write books with all of the "feels" of a sexy romance, and the sensibilities of a chaste one. A lot depends on the characters and the setting of a particular scene. It's a balancing act that I'm still trying to perfect! xx

My favorite writer is Mary Balogh and now you became my second favorite. Your books became autobuy. I was wondering if Work of Art is going to be a series because I was really curious about lady Eliot, Phyllida's cousins and Arthur's brother and father stories?
