I love Pride and Prejudice, Regency era history and dragons. Generally that's not considered a problem unless one tries to write it all at the same time. :)
Join Elizabeth in getting to know the Netherfield dragons (yes, dragons!!) See who she meets. Nicholls met them at the door. Her hair, totally white, was tucked under a frilly white cap that made it difficult to detect where her hair ended and the cap began. She was young to have lost all the color in …

Today they are taking over and making their furry presence known… Muscling in first are Maria Grace’s feline crew: These three, now enormous boys came to us as fuzzy handfuls, looking as though someone had not read the …
On October 5-8 the Jane Austen Society of North America (JASNA) held its Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Huntington Beach, California.
