    Joanna Waugh's Interests
GeneralI love reading about Georgian and Regency England. In terms of America history, I'm hooked on the Revolutionary War and War of 1812, Barbary Wars --anything that has to do with the age of sail. My office is wall-to-wall nautical fiction and research books.

MusicAs a child of the sixties, I'm crazy about hard rock. But not oldies. I like current groups like Nickleback, Creed, Switchfoot, Tantric, Puddle of Mud etc... I especially like the music loud. Which is why I blew out my front car speakers.
MoviesHistoricals. All the Jane Austen movies, no matter who made them. Vanity Fair, Pirates of the Caribbean, Master and Commander -- well, you get the idea.
TelevisionThe History Channel is number one with me. And BBC America, especially shows about antiques and collectibles. I love Bargain Hunt and Cash in the Attic. America television -- Antiques Roadshow for sure. The recent Jane Austen marathon on PBS was fantastic! And I'm a fan of Showtime's The Tudors. But I also like Moonlight, Ghost Hunters and John Edwards Cross Country.

About me:

Writers are keen observers of human nature. They have to be to create characters that resonate with readers! But sometimes that ingenuity spills over into their personal lives and authors can't resist tinkering with their own storyline.

I am constantly reinventing myself. I've been a wife, mother, electric meter installer, lay nurse, and a widow. Yet, through it all, one role has remained constant--that of writer.

Goethe once said: "In every man's writings, the character of the writer must lie recorded." I hope that's true of my books. I strive to pen stories through which my love of history and the written word can shine. And because the journey through life is a bumpy one, I write romance.

COMING JULY 24TH FROM CERRIDWEN PRESS:

When what a lady hears isn’t always true, she must learn to see with her heart and trust the rest to…

BLIND FORTUNE

by Joanna Waugh

They say love is blind, but Lady Fortuna Morley doesn’t believe it. Sightless since birth, she can think of only one reason a gentleman would wed her—for the dowry and three thousand a year her father will provide. She’s in London the spring of 1814 to help launch her younger cousin into society, but prefers living quietly in country with her music. The last thing Fortuna wishes is to cross swords with the arrogant Marquess of Granville.

Charles Lowden, Lord Granville, has decided to take a wife. The bride he’s chosen is thirteen years his junior, but meets all criteria. What he won’t abide is interference from the girl’s impertinent cousin, the outspoken and opinionated Lady Fortuna Morley. The woman is determined to thwart the match. Charles is just as determined to charm Fortuna out of her disdain for him.

What neither expects in the ensuing battle of wills is to fall in love.

Hi Joanna! Thanks for the friend request!

I am a huge fan of Jane Austen, too, and have all the BBC movies on DVD (which I make my hubby watch again and again lol).
