Random Regency Stuff, My Own and Others (Cross-Posted on Goodreads)

Since my stock of unread Georgette Heyers was running low, I decided to start building my library of Barbara Metzgers, my next favorite Regency author. I ordered a couple used copies of her omnibuses, for I love omnibuses. The ones I received today are Rake's Ransom/A Loyal Companion and Valentines/Road to Ruin (although the latter of the second omni is by a different author, Margaret Evans Porter).

Problem is I have a lot of my plate right now. Not only do I have Marian Devon's Regency novel, Scandal Broth, to finish, I have a freebie Candice Hern on my Kindle and a Georgian Georgette Heyer on my real book shelf awaiting me. And that is just my reading schedule. I also have a writing schedule centered around faux-Regency (a.k.a. Regency inspired) fantasy. I want to complete a New World story featuring a not-quite fairy; I actually want to complete several. In this unrelated novel series, featuring Vampires as the ton, I have a partially written story that needs finishing. Finally, I thought up a new faux-Regency world (can you tell I am addicted?) while driving to work.

So a lot to do, and so little time to do it in. I'm not sure if my ADD-Muse is shrieking with delight or horror, or at what point I need to whip out the vinaigrette to revive her. Ah, c'est la vie. At least it is better than not reading and not writing. I'd rather not do that again. :-)
