A revision of the post from 11/13/2012, since I needed to add a number 4:
Having visited many more rooms than could be supposed to be of any other use than to contribute to the window tax and find employment for housemaids, "Now," said Mrs. Rushworth, "we are coming to the part of this blog where a list of things that are considered automatically to have something to do with Jane Austen is written."
1. John Cusack. My favorite actor. My favorite movie has not yet been made: John Cusack starring in a movie based on a Jane Austen novel. Probably would be better if it was a modern remake. I have a couple of ideas for scripts myself, but I'm not talking.
2. Any book I decide to review or discuss. My love of reading is tied up with liking Jane Austen's books, and my liking Jane Austen's books is tied up with my love of reading. So any discussion of a book is fair game.
3. Wonder Woman. Because I say so. Also, any news-making woman or woman from history that I choose to write about.
4. Any fictional work I create and decide to post here. The reasons are pretty much the same as number 2. Also, the fiction I post here is mine, unless I specifically state that I have also posted it on hitRECord.org, in which case it is available to REmix on that site (adding video, etc.).
Fanny:
"I am disappointed," said she, in a low voice, to Edmund. "This is not my idea of a blog."
Quotes (sort of) from Mansfield Park by Jane Austen. Everyman's Library version.
