Hi Gigi, I agree that you really have to slow down your pace when reading Austen. I imagine it's closer to what people reading in Austen's time would have experienced. We just don't have to do it by candlelight.

To all at Fresh Fiction, thank you for having me back. This was such a wonderful site, and the feedback was terrific. Lots of good energy here.

What an amazing group of people on this site. I haven't encountered anything like this on my blog tour. So my heartfelt thanks for the welcome. Since it seems like I've a few more novels in me, I'm thinking of tiling my whole house. I don't get the same effect when I vacuum--too noisy. I hope everyone enjoys Searching for Pemberley.

Thank you for sharing your own stories. It is so wonderful to have an exchange of ideas. As I said, this is a terrific site.

I started writing a novel in my 30s, but it was terrible. I tried again in my 40's. No luck. It was only when I had my knee replaced, and I was bored b/c I wasn't working that I finally started writing my Austen novel. That was 4 years ago, but by that time, I was ready.

What a wonderful site! Thank you for all your comments. It seems that some of us have clean houses because we write.
