So, for this Jane Austen hop, we'd like to offer a light, fun anthology of short stories by writers, a series of tasty tales taking place in Jane Austen's world.
In Dancing with Mr. Darcy: Stories Inspired by Jane Austen and Chawton House, edited by novelist Sarah Waters, you'll find all sorts of stories to please the most avid Austenian.
About: Two hundred years ago, Jane Austen - traumatized by her parents’ decision to give up the rectory in Hampshire where she grew up, and unable to write for a decade - accepted her brother
Edward’s offer of a permanent home in his Chawton House estate. It was there that she picked up her pen once again...and gave the world some of the most beloved and enduring stories ever written.
The Jane Austen Short Story Competition celebrates this immortal author and her works, and the blessed home that afforded her the peace and security to create them. Judged and chosen by Sarah Waters, bestselling author of Tipping the Velvet and Fingersmith, Dancing with Mr. Darcy includes the winning selection and nineteen runners-up, as well as introductions from Waters and Rebecca Smith, the great-great-great-great-great niece of Jane Austen.
