Here is Chapter 3 of my current WIP. In this chapter we finally see some things from Darcy’s POV. What does he know – if anything? There will be some major differences in this chapter than are in Jane Austen’s original. I am sorry to disappoint those of you who began conjecturing about a few …

Every Monday I will post another installment of my upcoming novel, The Ladies of Rosings Park, here at Austen Variations. The book (which will be out in mid-March) primarily tells Anne de Bourgh’s story, beginning with the period covered in Pride and Prejudice (the part I will be sharing here) and then carrying well beyond to her own happy ending.
