I worked on my first Kickstarter and it got approved! It’s for the Special Edition Hardcover of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 1: Archer and the release of Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 7: Spinster. I contacted my graphic designer about the Special Edition Hardcover of vol. 1: Archer—it’s going to be SO beautiful! The Kickstarter focuses on the Special Edition Hardcover, but it’ll also include vol. 7: Spinster so that it’ll sort of be like a launch day for vol. 7, too. A third special thing that’ll be in the Kickstarter is Special Edition Paperbacks of all the books in the series. They won’t be available in stores, just in the Kickstarter (and later, from my website, and also in my Patreon book box tiers if I decide to do them). The Kickstarter is not live yet, but you can follow it to be alerted when it has launched. (You may need to create a free Kickstarter account.) Follow Camy’s Kickstarter
Captain's Log, Stardate 08.25.2008
When Danica was here, we watched the BBC miniseries Pride and Prejudice! It was great!
I love watching this miniseries, but it’s always better watching it with friends. :) Especially friends who understand the Regency era and the storyline, and who love dishy British blokes.
I can’t believe this was made 13 years ago. Colin Firth looks so young. Danica also recognized the actress who played Caroline Bingley from other movies, What a Girl Wants and Three Weddings and a Funeral.
Now, a few weeks ago, Pride and Prejudice was showing on Masterpiece Classic, and I have a Tivo Season Pass to record it. Captain Caffeine wanted to watch something else and asked if he could stop recording.
I told him, “Sure, I have the DVDs.”
“You do?”
“Yes.”
“And you watch them over and over?”
Huffy. “Yes.”
“Why?”
“Because it’s good!”
Then, I challenged/pleaded/nagged Captain Caffeine to watch Pride and Prejudice with me.
“Okay.”
Jaw hits floor. “Really???” (In hindsight, I should not have given him the opportunity to change his mind.)
“Yes. Just not right now,” he added hastily as he flipped to Sports Center.
So when Danica and I started watching Pride and Prejudice, I wondered if he would stay and watch, especially since we were monopolizing the TV.
And he did! Well, most of it. When Darcy was declaring his love for Elizabeth, he said he was tired and was going to bed and walked out on the most romantic point of the movie. (I am not surprised, after all, he is a man.)
Aren’t you impressed? I know I am.
Here’s a link to the YouTube video of Mr. Darcy’s first appearance in the miniseries (BBC disabled embedding it in my blog post, sorry). I love this scene!
