FOR JANE AUSTEN ADDICTS ONLY…...
If you are as addicted to “ANYTHING Jane Austen”, as much as I am, you
will be more than happy with this amazing book list of great stuff written
after OUR POOR Jane LEFT US – WAY TOO YOUNG AND WAY TO POOR – If only her
family had believed in her writing talent and dumped money into her publishing …… sad
they could not fathom, just how talented, she really was and all she needed was help. Just have to add that you would
think that BBC productions in England would wake up and remember all the success they have had
with her productions thus far and put some of these author's books who came after Jane - to screen copy, script …. Come on
Ang Lee and Emma Thompson … You amazed us with “Sense and Sensibility”, it’s
time for another. What about Lady Susan, Sandition or The Watsons … Ah, an
even better idea what about someone we know, love and trust finishing her last
½ written novella. We then can act like Jane is still here … and you know us
–Austenites- we will never be satisfied so it can go on forever and forever
amen…
After all of that, I just want to point out all the amazing success of Downton
Abbey….An AH HA MOMENT, must we turn to Jullian Fellows – Yes....he’s our man - He could
rewrite the dictionary and give it a flair -the likes- we have never read. Yeah,
Yeah …. He’s too busy (every member of my blood families’ first name, and the
only excuse for anything, anytime ….. now I am Too Busy Jan Austen……ahhahahah). I
digress, as usual, time to write to some head honcho at the BBC in ENGLAND and
beg … Wish me luck all you “Austenites”, cause you know me, I will do it…… and
it won’t be the first time I do something like this and it works!!!!! It must
be my tenacity or my annoying hounding that caused people to give in and give
in and give in……if only people would see that when I do that to them…..they win not me!
If I could have a quarter for all the people I helped make tons of money ….. I
would have some - a lot of sum …..
Hope all you Austenites enjoy these and yes I have read them all.
