Hello, Janeites! Romance is in the air on this world-wide day of love. And what do we love more than celebrating one of our favorite novels, Pride and Prejudice? I am in the wonderful position of teaching the best and brightest in my little piece of the world through AP Literature, and decided to bring …

On Air: An Elizabeth and Darcy Story (Part 6)
Greetings! It’s another week — and so here’s another part of my Elizabeth and Darcy story, On Air! As usual, it’s unedited, and I didn’t quite manage to reach the true end of Part 6. But I thought I’d go ahead and post what I have and beg your forgiveness for all my shortcomings! (I’m …

Celebrating Jane: Tempting Tea Parties for Non-Janeites
I wasn’t born into a family of fiction readers. My immediate and extended relations might skim articles about current news & events or flip through some nonfiction bestsellers with mild interest, but they’ve always been more inclined toward the math and science fields rather than whimsical worlds or imaginary characters.

Gems in Regency England
Good morning everyone! Recently, I stumbled down a research rabbit hole while writing my WIP and thought I would share. I needed a gemstone that was semi-precious, something Mr. Bennet could gift to Elizabeth that an unwanted and controlling husband would not deem as worth anything—therefore, he would not confiscate it. After digging around, I …
