Jaunty = Sexy

So now that Penny is finished for the moment, (I'm not ready to go back and do a second draft just yet) I've been racking my brain for a new project.  And I've finally come up with something I'm pretty excited about.  Of course, I'm also kind of nervous because I'm switching genres, in fact switching to a genre that doesn't have a whole lot of esteem.  (Right, because yaoi has so much.  *snort*)

Anyway, the plan is to try my hand at a Regency Romance novel.  I think it will be cute and hopefully funny.  I want to do a romance between a Lady's Maid and a Valet, and they conspire to get their employers together in order to be together themselves during a Country House Party.  I'm working out the plot and characters now, but I'm looking forward to really getting into it.  I've been trying to do some reasearch, and I ran across this, which I thought was pretty funny.   15 Things that Always Happen in Romance Novels.
