For information on any OCC events, please contact the chapter — you’ll find info at http://www.occrwa.org. The workshop I’m starting in FEB is an OCC event, so you’ll need to go through that RWA chapter for additional information.
Hi, Shannon.
I’m writing a quiz for romance writers and can’t remember the 10 years of the Regency period.
Love Reno. Say hey to my buds in OCC and EVA.

The official years of the Regency are 1810 until George III died in 1820. However, a regency had been discussed as early as the 1790′s when King George first showed signs of a lasting madness that he might not recover from. So influence and style of the “Regency Era” is considered to be 1795 to mid 1830′s. By 1840, Victorian age is fully under way with Victoria on the throne and marrying Albert (she comes to the throne in 1837, while William IV is king from 1830 – 1837).
