I enjoyed getting to know him throughout the process and love his journey and transformation. And I also valued Elizabeth's strength even in her imperfection. My goal was that I did not want either of them to seem untouchable; I wanted them to to seem like real people with struggles, faults and eventually understanding.Georgia McCallnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519391315473032614.post-80083724209285760052016-10-01T12:38:53.796-05:002016-10-01T12:38:53.796-05:00Thank you for enlightening us with your thoughts a...Thank you for enlightening us with your thoughts and motivations for developing the Darcy character of your novel.

Many give away parts of the story that out of context can affect your perception before even getting started. They certainly run the gamut though (at least the ones that I allowed myself to read!) Like all books, there are those who love it and those who think quite the contrary; but as expected with any book worth its price, the readers' emotions are engaged either way.Georgia McCallnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519391315473032614.post-90224340922922711352016-09-27T20:24:02.495-05:002016-09-27T20:24:02.495-05:00This is intriguing!

Of course that was two years ago, and since then I have focused 100% on my own book, hoping to avoid any unintentional influences from other authors' works or forums. I have hoped in writing my book that I have provided a story completely different than what was currently available. I am now free to return to my kindle and have enjoyed going back to the books I have already purchased, finding that it is like reading each of them for the first time. I will add yours to my list for I well remember the feeling of finding my next fresh story to dive into.

The most notable one, though, is "Being Mrs. Darcy", which is available at A Happy Assembly. You must not be a forum reader?<br /><br />~Zoe BurtonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
