Pride and Prejudice related
If we were all being honest, I wonder what the actual percentage of women would be who ever thought even for a moment that it would be better to be a man? I’m sure age, maturity, and situation would be major factors in the outcome. For Alethea Darcy it is more than a passing thought. […]
As an avid reader and a writer I tend to think of books as more than just a momentary entertainment. I love to read my favorite books over and over again.

As with every previous Friday, Charlotte waited for Mr. Collins to breakfast, pull on his gardening trousers, and head out in the tangled web of cucumber vines and cabbages. Today’s letter promised to be particularly promising since it was in Lady Catherine’s hand. Who would the old rich hag have had such a need to […]
Today we are pleased to have the opportunity to pose our own questions to Colette Saucier who has graciously agreed to answer. What was the most challenging aspect of writing Pulse and Prejudice?
