Biography
Award-winning author Carrie Bebris is best known for her Mr & Mrs Darcy Mystery series. Set in Regency England, the novels entangle some of Jane Austen's most beloved characters in intrigue.
Carrie began her career in publishing after previous roles as a journalist and college English teacher. As an editor for fantasy publisher TSR, Inc., she developed supplements for the Dungeons & Dragons® roleplaying game before striking out on her own as a freelance writer and editor.
In addition to her novels, Carrie pens articles for Jane Austen's Regency World magazine, writes other nonfiction. She speaks nationally and locally about Austen, writing, and publishing, and regularly presents writing workshops and seminars at venues ranging from the Antioch Writers Workshop and James Thurber House to libraries and schools.
Carrie holds a master's degree in English literature with an emphasis on 19th- century authors and studied Austen on the graduate level with one of today's most respected Austen scholars. She is a life member the Jane Austen Society of North America and regional coordinator of its Dayton, Ohio chapter, and travels to England to enhance her understanding of Austen's life and work. Reviewers praise her for capturing not only the spirit of Austen's writings, but also the historical details of the Regency era; in the name of research, she has engaged in experiences that range from dancing at Regency balls to exploring the hold of an 18th-century warship and firing a dueling pistol.
