Christina Morland | 83 comments Hi, all! Two toots of my own horn on this lovely May day, and both are free (well, they cost time, which is indeed precious):

1.) I have an Elizabeth/Darcy vignette up at Austen Variations! If you count 2000-word one-shots as one of your reads for your challenge list, here's a quick infusion of Austenesque for you!

2.) Check out my conversation with the lovely Meredith at Austenesque Reviews on the latest episode of my podcast, Austenesque Musings! Find out which Austen book she'd jump into, if she could -- and let me know your thoughts for a chance to win a free paperback! You can listen at Anchor or subscribe to the podcast at Apple, Spotify, or several other podcast platforms.

Many thanks!
