It has been a memorable week at my NC home.

Monday, Nov.7, found me the grandmother for my son Joshua‘s first child. “James” weighed in at a hefty 9 pounds 6 ounces.

Tuesday, Nov. 8, was the official release of my newest book, Christmas at Pemberley. On that day, I visited Savvy Authors with a Guest Post on “Precision in Language Choices.” http://www.savvyauthors.com/vb/content.php?1641-Precision-in-Language-Choices-by-Regina-Jeffers

Wednesday, Nov. 9, found me at My Jane Austen Book Club for another guest post and book giveaway (through Nov. 15). “Love with an Improper Stranger” is a closer look at the tragic life of Princess Charlotte, and how I worked one of more indiscreet entanglements into Christmas at Pemberley. http://thesecretunderstandingofthehearts.blogspot.com/2011/11/regina-jeffers-guestpost-and-giveaway.html

Thursday, Nov. 10, the blog tour continued with a look at my “Writing Space” and my writing ritual at Savvy Verse and Wit. This guest blog also offers up a book giveaway (through Nov. 18). http://savvyverseandwit.com/2011/11/guest-post-regina-jeffers-writing-space.html/comment-page-1#comment-12214

After a few private moments on this Veterans’ Day to remember those members of my family who have served this country faithfully over its many wars, Friday saw my first visit to Reader’s Entertainment News with an interview that asked some interesting questions about how I view the romantic hero in my novels. http://readersentertainment.com/2011/introducing-classic-author-regina-jeffers/

Today, I am looking at Christmas traditions in the Regency era over at Thoughts in Progress. http://masoncanyon.blogspot.com/ Stop by and tell your favorite Christmas traditions.

Next week will bring me my official launch celebration of Christmas at Pemberley on one of my regular haunts Austen Authors (http://austenauthors.net). The launch brings another book giveaway. Tuesday, I return to AuAu for my newest entry in our Pride and Prejudice 200 Celebration (celebrating the events from P&P from the point of view of the other characters). I will relate Elizabeth Bennet’s infamous walk about the room with Caroline Bingley from Mr. Darcy’s point of view.

Wednesday, I will be at Pride and Prejudice 2005 http://prideandprejudice05.blogspot.com/ and at Christy Farmer’s Reviews http://christyfarmer.wordpress.com/ There will be a dual book giveaway on that day.

On Thursday, Nov. 17, I shall be revisiting one of my newer haunts – English Historical Fiction Authors http://englishhistoryauthors.blogspot.com with at look at a most bizarre Scottish legend, the one the cannibalistic family of Sawney Bean. I return to EHFA on Nov. 28 for a spot on the Brahan Seer. EHFA devotes itself to English history and a group of writers who love all eras of the British Empire.

Monday, Nov. 21, will find me with Meredith at Austenesque Reviews http://janeaustenreviews.blogspot.com/. We will be discussing my venture into inspirational romance with Christmas at Pemberley. Please come join us for a lively conversation and another book giveaway.
