Good Morning, #WritingCommunity! What are you working on this week? I'm prepping for an #AuthorInterview with @lindzmcleod.bsky.social about her book An Honour and a Privilege. I loved the short stories in this collection! So imaginative. Join our discussion Thursday, on #WomenWritersNet

The cover of THE MISEDUCATION OF CAROLINE BINGLEY by Lindz McLeod. Two women in regency dress sit on a pink picnic blacket. The blonde woman in the light yellow dress offers a bright red apple to the dark-haired woman in the purple dress. Behind them we can see a lake and in the far distance, two horses stand in front of a grand house.
"Lindz McLeod has built a world I would happily live in forever. Give me a thousand books set here." - early ARC reader for THE MISEDUCATION OF CAROLINE BINGLEY (#2 in the Austentatious series)

You crafted an entirely unique POV and voice in this story, it was exciting and fun to edit with you :)
Wow! I didn't expect this. It's a really nice surprise! Thanks to @apexmag.bsky.social for the opportunity, and to @pegasusunder.bsky.social for doing a great job editing the story in the first place.
