Wow! My first official book plug using the title. A seminal moment! Thanks for the shout out Nicchic. I have working away with the authors and planning for the short story contest which beings Jan 01, 2011. Yes, one lucky winner will be included in the anthology. It is going to be an exciting year of Jane for me with promotions and the book release in Oct. Thanks again!
ReplyDeleteI know I'm looking forward to it! It's going to be exciting to see what everyone else has written.
ReplyDeleteLaurel Ann you are welcome. Looking forward to the anthology and the range of scenarios all the included authors come up with! I love Austen fan fiction as many do and I know you will have no shortage of submissions for the short story. Good luck with the promotions and release...I'll be following and looking out for the book cover!!!
ReplyDeleteMonica...I think once you become an Austen fan its a lifelong passion and you can't get enough! Good luck with its release next year...I'm sure whatever you have included will be wonderful.
