(no subject)

I blame you, Mari, for the entirely original story idea that has just entered my head. It includes Lizzy, Georgiana, Mr Wickham and Ramsgate. I'm sure no one ever wrote a story like this. ;) Title, an act of genius on my part - "A Summer in Ramsgate".

Either that or I'll send all the Bennets to the coast because "Sea-Bathing Will Set Me Up Forever".

Any other Jane Austen Summer Story ideas?

Jane on the Beach Summer Challenge

This is posted with totally no ulterior motive at all, merely to provide the JAFF readers with some light summer reading. The challenge is the following:

* Write a JA-related fic in 10 parts (or 10 short stories). Of course we won't object if there are more stories (or story parts). ;)

* Your story should be set by (or on) the sea.

* Your main characters should be Jane Austen's characters, or Jane Austen herself.

* Your stories should be posted in the months June, July and August 2011.

* This is supposed to be light reading, so there should be no more angst than absolutely necessary (maybe a little to keep things interesting). A touch of comedy will be greatly appreciated.

* Once you post your stories, mark them with "Jane on the Beach - "Story Title"" in the subject line.

Any takers?
