This November marks the 200th anniversary of Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, and Austen Authors is celebrating in our own unique way: we're writing, of course!
For the next 16 months our AuAu authors will be laying claim to a wide assortment of familiar scenes from Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice and re-writing them from the point of view of other characters. But it's not as cut and dry as you might think. Appearing alongside Jane's well-known characters, like Mr. Darcy, Kitty Bennet, Charlotte Lucas, Mr. Bennet, and Caroline Bingley, are a few new faces that you may not know, but who promise to be just as entertaining. As a matter of fact, we've already met a few, and the response has been delightful.
Abigail Reynolds and Heather Lynn Rigaud kicked off our commemorative posting last Saturday, September 17th. Following closely on their heels were some lovely offerings from Regina Jeffers and Susan Kaye. Who will be next, and when, you ask? Well, guessing is half the fun, but I can tell you that my first post will be on October 5th, so watch for it, and be sure to stop by Austen Authors to say hello. As always, I'd love to hear from you!
