It seems to me that the reason JA's characters are so beloved and "real" to us 200 years later is because they are flawed as we are all!! I look forward to reading this brave new variation!!<br />Catherine Commons<br />catcommons(at)Comcast(dot)netAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519391315473032614.post-82276384188650214212014-06-24T06:49:16.795-05:002014-06-24T06:49:16.795-05:00Oops, forgot this: angmardee (at) hotmail (dot) co...Oops, forgot this: angmardee (at) hotmail (dot) com.Anjihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00580018261533290062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519391315473032614.post-8779347582270324552014-06-24T04:12:18.854-05:002014-06-24T04:12:18.854-05:00Since I became part of the JAFF community earlier ...Since I became part of the JAFF community earlier this year, I never cease to be amazed how generous the authors are with their giveaways. It's a fantastic way to discover new authors and I've been lucky on several occasions, which have then led me on to buying more of their works. Gail, you are a new author to me and I just put all your works (including the joint ones with Tina) on my TBR list.<br /><br />I love that there are so many different interpretations and "what if" moments that can take the story off in a totally new direction. The "Hunsford moment" (and the subsequent letter) is one of what could be called the iconic moments in the original (can't believe I just used that term, it drives me mad when it's used on the TV!) but it doesn't bother me (too much, that is) that it doesn't have to be set in stone, as long as we do, eventually, get our HEA.Anjihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00580018261533290062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519391315473032614.post-73920214337382517872014-06-22T08:58:02.948-05:002014-06-22T08:58:02.948-05:00I love giveaways!!
