About Jeannie Ruesch

Jeannie Ruesch wrote her first story at the age of the six, prompting her to give up an illustrious, hours-long ambition of becoming a Dallas Cowboy
Cheerleader and declare that writing was her destiny. That journey to destiny took a few detours along the way, including a career in marketing and
design.

Her first novel, a fairy-tale like historical romance, was published in 2009, but the darker side of life had always captivated her. So after a dinner
conversation with friends about the best way to hide a dead body, she knew she had to find a way to incorporate suspense into her writing. (The legal
outlet for her fascination.) Today, she continues writing what she loves to read – stories of history, romance and suspense. She lives in Northern
California with her husband, their son and an 80 pound lapdog lab named Cooper.

She is also the creator of the WIP Notebook, a writer’s tool to help stay organized while you write, which you can find at herwebsite. You can also follow her on FacebookTwitterGoodreads and Pinterest.

Special Feature: Happy Birthday Jane Austen

Today, Dec 16th marks what would have been Jane Austen’s 238th birthday! Austen is one of my most beloved authors.

Her books and heroines have charmed audiences for years and the heroines of the book become role models for women around the world.

Austen’s novels and stories never go out of style. I can read Pride and Prejudice over and over again. I am sure many woman have a favorite Austen heroine…..Elizabeth Bennet is the most popular of course.

For me personally, I love Anne Elliot from Persuasion or Elinor Dashwood from Sense and Sensibility.

Austen is all things classy, elegant, and enduring. For all you Janeites out there I wanted to share a special feature honoring this timeless author!

Here are some fun Jane Austen inspired things to distract you today!
