She indulges in borrowing some of Miss Austen's best loved characters (and occasionally lesser loved ones) and providing new experiences, new narratives and on occasion new original 'friends' for them. The joy -- and challenge -- in writing these stories lies in retaining the recognizable characters Jane Austen gave the world, while further exploring the traits and quirks that so enthrall her readers two hundred years later.
Tess is presently at work on her third novel-length piece. When not writing for fun, she gets equal pleasure from traveling wherever funds wil take her; attending Regency events in costume (never lost that little-girl delight for 'dressing up'); photography (but she's running out of wall space); or relaxing in a comfy chair with a good book, her cat Smudge in her lap, and a nice cup of Yorkshire Gold tea. She is a U.S. native currently living in New York, yet her heart often can be found in other places and times, most notably Regency England.view less
