Welcome readers and fans of regency period drama and romance themed novels. I am pleased to introduce you to my writing, which began with posts tailored to fit Instagram word limitations in 2020 when I wrote a screenplay outline for Jane Austen’s unfinished “Sanditon”. I followed that up with a book, "Sanditon on Reflection" published in 2021 which also was published in an Italian version entitled "Ricordi di Sanditon" in December 2023 by Vintage Editore of Bari, Italy. My new book, “Mr Darcy - Through the Looking Glass”, delves into the minds and thoughts of Mr Darcy, Miss Elizabeth Bennet and others and reveals what I imagined they might have written in their diaries; where deepest secrets could be written, where the puzzles of life and love could be explored, where heartbreak could be accepted, where the agitated spirit could be calmed and where loss could be assuaged through hope. The book is based on Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice” and is dedicated to her in celebration of the 250th anniversary of her birth. The book release date is January 20, 2026 in e-book version. The hardcover will release on Valentine’s Day. I hope you enjoy this website where you will find information about my writing through links to various sites featuring reviews, posts on various platforms and my youtube account where you can find more about my books. I would also mention that the cover and interior artwork of my books are the creation of a fabulous artist from the Netherlands, Marjan de Jonge. Thank you for your interest. D B Thomas —
