Lin Mei Wei

Goodreads Author


Website

Genre
Historical Fiction, Romance, Humor and Comedy

Influences
Jane Austen, Georgette Heyer

Member Since

Lin Mei Wei lives in England, in the Midlands (home of Shakespeare, pork pies, and Robin Hood) with her husband, her daughter, and her disreputable dog.

Writing is about escapism for her. She writes when she's feeling anxious, stressed, overwhelmed or sad, so as to relax and to be happy.

Deconstructing Mr Darcy

I love writing about Mr Darcy. He's my favourite character in all of literature.

And yes, I know what you're thinking...



Because when I tell people that I love the character Mr Darcy, they immediately think of this guy...



... and this guy...



But even though that's all very nice, it's not actually what I mean when I claim him as my favourite literary character. If you want to know my incorrigibly nerd Read more of this blog post »
