What to tell you about me?

My writing career began, as many have, with fanfiction. While some of these stories are here, the majority can be found on Fanfiction.net under the pen name: Eclectic Butterfly.

Though I have a few fanfiction stories here, my main writing is in the historical genre. My main love is the Regency era, so a lot of my stories are set there.

Standalone Stories:
Letters and Love
A Chaotic Courtship
My Hands Hold My Story
The Opera Singer's Daughter
What Swims on Uncharted World 550

~A Gentleman of Misfortune Series~
1. Not My Idea
2. Best Laid Plans
3. A Sibling's Interference

Loosely connected novellas and short stories:
Eugenia
Grace
Celia
Daphne's Second Chance
