Bio
Bronwen Chisholm always enjoyed reading and even dabbled in writing, but didn’t consider it as a career until she reached her forties. With her family growing up, she decided to allow her creativity to flourish. In 2015, following the deaths of her parents, she was inspired to publish three Pride and Prejudice Variations. Since then she has released seven more including her recent release, An Interrupted Proposal. In the meanwhile, she held the position of vice president of the Riverside Writers and organized the Riverside Young Writers, both in Fredericksburg, for over six years, and in 2021, she became a certified copy-editor.
