I’m thrilled to announce that my Regency romance short story, “Meet Me Under the Oak Tree,” will be published in the inaugural issue of The Yearning Journal!

The story is about an aspiring young poet who’s dragged to the house party of an odious suitor only to fall in love with a gorgeous painting—and the intriguing man standing beside it. Inspired by the lush, romantic landscape works of John Constable (such as “Wooded Landscape,” pictured here), it’s the perfect reading for fall. 🍂

This lovely zine by @yearningbookclub will be a creative celebration of Jane Austen coziness and autumnal yearning. As soon as I read the call for submissions, I knew I wanted to write a piece for it, and I’m so pleased that mine will be included. 🧡 For all of my fellow Austen fans and lovers of Regency yearning, you can pre-order now using the link in bio!
