It has been a long, busy summer which isn't an excuse for not blogging. I'm sorry. After I started my new job and new business, I just ran out of extra energy for this. Now I'm more accustomed to this schedule and will take up writing again.
I love Jane Austen. There is a wonderful Jane Austen community online. You can access many very interesting writers from http://www.austenarium.com. There are wonderful alternatives and sequels for Persuasion. Beware though, these stories can be addictive. Some of the online versions are now coming out as standard books, so you can read them that way too.
My garden took most of my spare time this summer. We've enjoyed lots of fresh fruits and vegetables. Now that cooler weather is here, we're mixing those into the casseroles that autumn brings. While the garden is still growing strong, I find I keep killing rosemary plants. I love rosemary and want it fresh but have a black thumb. So far, I've managed to kill 4 in the past year. I bought another one today and hope to have better luck.
