Too good not to share -
Cara King, of the Risky Regencies site, has penned (keyboarded?) one of the funniest pieces Apprentice Writer has read in a long time, containing the doubtless soon-to-be-immortal phrase "...unbending suit of petroleum derivatives."
Go, enjoy:

That was a very witty read! I was thoroughly routed (?).
'Affectation of honesty is common enough--one meets with it everywhere. But to be a crusader full of ostentation and design--to take the bad of everybody's character and make it cause for action, and monotone muttering--belongs to you alone.'
LOL!!
Thanks for the kind words, M!

amy, julia - yes, so much fun!
cara - welcome! as you can see, you have fans beyond 'risky regencies'. dare i hope for further austen episodes?
Definitely!
So far, I've mostly done Austen Trek -- Jane Austen writing either the original Star Trek, or Next Generation. But I also hope to branch out...who knows what Jane Austen may write next... :-)
