Ok, a few things: I have a title, a release date, and a website with blurb and excerpt. I don't yet have a (final) cover but didn't want to wait to share the rest in the meantime.
The book title is The Lady's Secret and it will be released by Carina Press on 7th November 2011.
The blurb is below. You can also read an excerpt on my author website.
In terms of blogging, I've decided to keep this blog here for now but there's a page on the website that links here and vice versa. I've given my blogging quite a bit of thought actually. I don't have a huge readership on this blog but I hope that the people who do regularly visit find the posts of some interest and I don't want that to change. So, while I will mention my book and what's happening with it (as this post attests), my intention is to keep this blog largely the same as it's always been content-wise and primarily with a reader-focus. One thing that will be new you is that I will have the odd guest post. And that's something I'd like to do more of, actually. So if anyone out there is interested in guest-posting here, let me know by emailing authorjoannachambers [at] gmail [dot] com.
Ok, so here's the blurb!
London, 1810
Former actress Georgiana Knight always believed she and her brother were illegitimate--until they learn their parents were married, making them heirs to a great estate. To prove their claim, Georgy needs to find evidence of their union by infiltrating a ton house party as valet to Lord Nathaniel Harland . Though masquerading as a boy is a challenge, it pales in comparison to sharing such intimate quarters with the handsome, beguiling nobleman.
Nathan is also unsettled by Georgy’s presence. First intrigued by his unusual valet, he’s even more captivated when he discovers Georgy’s charade. The desire the marriage-shy earl feels for his enigmatic employee has him hoping for much more than a master-servant relationship...
But will Nathan still want Georgy when he learns who she truly is? Or will their future be destroyed by someone who would do anything to prevent Georgy from uncovering the truth?

So exciting. Cross dressing! A house party! May you have many wonderful reviews and even more sales.
All the best as your book launches onto the stirring seas of the internet :) From a frequent lurker..

Thanks all!
Congratulations!
Congratulations! Not a fan of (literary) cross-dressing -- but I love house parties! So hoping they will cancel each other out. :-) -- willaful
Heh... my captch is "dipsin." Will I be dipping into sin today?
Congrats! Looking forward to reading it!
Congratulations! I adore cross-dressing narratives (gender performance is the kind of thing I study in my "real" life) so I'm very much looking forward to reading this.
