News from Jo Beverley

[Jobev]

Hello, and I hope you're enjoying spring. Alas, I know wild weather
has hit many places. Here in Devon we had a glorious week of summer
weather in late March, but it's now slid way back. We had hail
yesterday! We also had rain, however, which is lovely for the garden,
which I'm beginning to tend and have hopes for.

The news today is that a new story is available. Now it is quite short
and part of a large anthology of very varied stories, but you will
recognize other authors. It's available in print and e-book.

Saint Agnes and the Black Sheep is a traditional Regency story. A
plain, prim young lady who is suffering through a London season feels
compelled to step in to help a rake. Admittedly, she has selfish
motives, too. You can find out more here. http://owl.li/9U3t6

For an internet treat, I'm quoting here from a post to my chat list.
"There is a fantastic exhibit on the Colonial Williamsburg web site.
It is called Historic Threads and displays clothing and accessories
from the 17th and 18th centuries. You can even zoom in to see the
incredible detail of the beading and embroidery. The web site is
www.history.org<http://www.history.org> then click on the Historic
Threads icon. I think you will like it."

I certainly did, and there's so much on that website, especially with
relevance to the Malloren World.

All best wishes,

Jo
