As I join Bluesky from Eastern Ontario, Canada, hello to friends old & new.

I write sweet contemporary romance as Jen Gilroy & historical women’s/British saga fiction as Rose Warner (currently WW2).

My family (including dog Floppy Ears), reading, lake life & ballet all bring me joy.
Happy #StPatricksDay to everyone celebrating! ☘️

With predominantly Irish ancestry, #Ireland has a special place in my life & heart.

I just cast my vote in Ontario’s provincial election.

Remembering with gratitude the women before me who fought for this right, I never take it for granted. #Ontario #Canada #voting #election

Had a completely distracting day playing with the image zoom feature in The Lydiard Archives curating our new collection "St.John Jewellery: Pearls to Paste". It's been perfect. #EarlyModern #History #Skystorians #17thC #Jewellery

1036 words so far today, despite getting waylaid in research rabbit holes like slang words for head, how many windows a Methodist chapel might have, how blackout was attached to windows, whether men who wore glasses could serve in the Forces, and what colours were used on window frames in the 1930s.

No matter how much or little you know about your family’s history, it contains remarkable stories of courage, love, and heartbreak. If you’re intrigued by the idea of ancestry brought to life, I invite you to explore The Lydiard Chronicles.

I can’t believe my next Harlequin Heartwarming will be coming out in 2 months. If you like rubber ducks or duck derbies or just sweet wholesome contemporary romances, check out Saving the Rancher.
