Happy Holidays, Dear Readers! I don’t know about you, but I feel as if the season has snuck up on me. Between grading essays, football season and preparing for next term, I didn’t realize it was almost Christmas until…well…it was.

Happy November—and for those of you who celebrate the holiday, Happy American Thanksgiving! I am thankful to be part of a community that takes such pleasure in Jane Austen’s works. I’m also thankful for your patience! Over a month ago, I began a “vignette” called “Dispelling the Gloom,” based on October’s magic and malevolence theme. …
This short excerpt is based on a deleted section from Mysterious Mr. Darcy. It was meant to be the prologue to the novel, but then I changed it completely. Since it fits with the theme of the month — Indoors and Outdoors — I thought it might be fun to share it. I’ve expanded it …
