Proof Pages
Below is the title page for the Proofs for HOW TO RAVISH A RAKE. Now you know what the first page looks like. Note they are unbound.
The text in the proofs is laid out side-by-side like a book. There are page and line numbers that I can use for reference in a word document for changes if necessary. Look carefully & you will see a word that I marked out. I'd repeated it in the line above.

Happy Holidays to All!
Here's a funny photo of me in the 1980s – that poodle hair was not attractive LOL. The little boy next to me with the curly hair and the Osh Kosh overalls is my son Daniel. He's all grown up now.
I hope you all have a safe and wonderful holiday season with family & friends. Cheers!

Regency Dancing: Lady Gresham's Ball – The Hole in the Wall
I belong to a special Regency chapter of Romance Writers of America called The Beau Monde. At several of of our conferences we've had dances complete with musicians and dancing masters! The dancing is much more difficult than it looks in the film Becoming Jane. By the way, I watched the dancing in this scene several times while writing the scene where Amy Hardwick and Will 'the devil' Darcett exchange some rather steamy looks during a dance! Enjoy!
The Prince Regent Regency England
This is a bit long, but definitely worth watching. Enjoy!
