This Scottish phrase roughly translates to “for old times’ sake.” And is a great way to cheers the old year and welcome in the new one on Hogmanay (or the last day of the year).

Writing daily would be great but even when I don’t manage to get any words on the page, I’m still a writer.

Three months ago, a brilliant beauty had a crisis of identity; and now that the 1785 London season has concluded, she must choose between following her head or giving into her heart and risk losing it all. SERENITY AND THE MARQUESS will appeal to fans of THE MADNESS OF LORD IAN MACKENZIE. #questpit

CHASTITY AND THE BARON is BRIDGERTON meets NINE RULES TO BREAK and follows a third-season debutante in 1785 London when she is forced to make a difficult choice that lands her entangled with a villainous rake only to learn that it is an old friend who will help her bloom. #questpit #q #a #hr
