Each day, we’ve been adding to Austen Variations some of our favorite old posts previously published on other blogs. These posts carry their original date of publication so they don’t appear on the current “front page” of the blog. So how will you know when one is posted? If you’d like to receive emails alerting you to daily posts – either new or from the archives – all you have to do enter your email address where it says “Subscribe to Blog Via Email” on the right side of the page. The email will include a link to the latest post so you’ll be able to locate it easily.
Here are a few that are just being republished today:
Morals of the Story by Marilyn Brant
Theo Has a Chocolate Factory by Susan Mason-Milks
Inspirations for Mr. Darcy’s Noble Connections by Abigail Reynolds
Here are some additions from the past few weeks:
Regency Interpreter, Part 1 and Part 2 by Maria Grace

I had subscribed to the blog and have been receiving the email notices to the older blogs. Thank you so much….so far they’ve all been new to me.
Susan, thank you for reposting these older blogs for us! It’s been a lot of fun getting to revisit them 😉 .
And Deborah, I’m so glad you’ve been reading and enjoying them!!
Another trick is to go to the archives and select the month you want to see.
It’s hard to pick a favourite as I have so many I treasure or have learned from. There was a wonderful one about drinks in Regency times. It included all Georgette Heyer’s terms for over-indulging in drink. I enjoyed it so much that I made a skit from all the names. Then there was the one about running water going to wealthy homes in London – fascinating! Wasn’t it a Mr Darcy who invented it? There was a charming and beautifully-illustrated post on gloves. Or the one where we all posted pictures of cats & provided Austen-esque captions. I hope all can be preserved!
I’m so glad you can resurrect these old blog posts—they all look interesting. I must say, before this explanation, I was very confused about the appearance of the older publication dates.
Sorry to have confused you! Glad it makes better sense now.
