Alive and Thinking in Cyberspace: Pam's take on just about everything
I’ve got a lot to do these next weeks, so I’m extending my current contest to the end of the month. It’s in honor of the mass-paperback reissue of The Slightest Provocation. And do check out the amazing prize — a full complement of books from a bevy of brilliant, beautiful history hoydens. And also [...]
Have I got a prize for you! Well, one lucky one of you anyway, who by entering my new contest, will be eligible to win a veritable treasure trove of lovely historical romances and choice historical gossip, written by me and by a beautiful, brilliant bevy of bloggers (try saying that fast) from the History [...]
Congratulations to Virginia in Clifton, VA and Breanna in Huntsville, AL — both of whom should be receiving gorgeous gift boxes of flavored chocolates from Mariebelle in New York. They tell me you’ll be getting them today or tomorrow, ladies. And do let me know if the elegant flavors you chose are as yummy as [...]

Jennelle will receive a selection of herbal-scented bath and massage products from L’Occitane, for having read the bathtub excerpt from The Edge of Impropriety and correctly answering the question about the scents Marina used. Lotus, pine, and wild thyme. Ahhh… And because Jennelle [...]
I like to offer books as contest prizes, so when I heard that Janet Mullany‘s new Regency chick lit novel, A Most Lamentable Comedy, was coming out this summer (published by the British company Little Black Dress) I emailed Janet for some info — as well as a promise of two signed advance copies my [...]
The last few History Hoyden posts, particularly from our bestselling authors Lauren Willig and Mary Blayney, about funny and fascinating branches of their family trees. Not to speak of the terrific comments — from hoydens and readers alike — about our own families and all the places they came from, including this continent, before Columbus. [...]
Congratulations to… Marisol, from Downey, CA, and Sara from Blacksburg, VA, …who correctly answered the question in my recently ended contest — yes, Jasper Hedges, hero of The Edge of Impropriety, has blue eyes. Each lucky winner will receive my four backlist romance titles, autographed for holiday giving: The Slightest Provocation The Bookseller’s Daughter Almost [...]
