Posting day

Today I post chapter 38. mmmm. What is in 38 that will bring by readers to joy, tears, fears, happiness, anxiety, or even sadness? let's see. Chapter 37 Rawlings boarded the ship and yelled at Darcy for not going to Bingley's party. Ah yes, the dinner party.

So Darcy gets to meet a whole new world of people. What will he think? Will he think they are all lunatics. lol

This is just another chapter into Darcy discovering who he is. He may not like what he learns but then this story is all about his change and more will come later.

Well, I do appreciate the comments I receive because I learn what works, doesn't work, and what I leave out. lol Have I made changes to the story after the comments? Well, a sentence here and there and once a whole paragraph. But now I have added a whole scene to a chapter just because the readers begged. I will give them what they want but they will need to wait until Chapter 41.

Ah. I know they want Rosings/Hunsford to come soon but not yet. First we have this party and then we have.... well, we have a few more things that must happen. So no Hunsford yet.

My story was always about what Darcy's life might have been in London. That and the exploration through the new characters of differences in regency era to what we know as life today. I used several tradesmen's sons (Bingley was just not what I wanted so I invented Kent), a second son and a titled man. I wanted to explore their lives and how the world impacted them- business, social and friendship. Now that we are in London, I wanted to attend a few balls and dinner parties but unlike other writers I wanted to explore life from Bingley and Kent's view too.
So today I post a dinner party like no other. I hope everyone enjoys it and understands much of what I wrote was based on actual descriptions about these people.

So enjoy and leave me comments if you wish. I always learn from them and it helps me decide what to do with the chapter when I have finished posting the whole thing. Will I keep it or make changes or even dump it into the trash bin icon? We shall see.
