Read “Sense and Sensibility” by Jane Austen way back and hated it, Sarah said that perhaps it was the translation and that I shouldn’t give up on Austen and I didn’t. “Pride and Prejudice” is still not in at my library and I’m reading it online instead, horrible to sit in front of the computer and read, I want to get comfortable and wrap a blanket around me but I can’t but it’s worth it!
Also reading “Jane Austen for dummies” and it’s fun to see how things worked back in the day. Oh and there was something that Jane said in one of her letters to her sister Cassandra about the art of writing letters, “(an expression) on paper exactly what one would say to the same person by word of mouth” and I agree, that is how you should write a letter. It makes me think of getting a copy of Jane Austen's Letters.
I would love to be able to decorate letters but I suck at that. I would like to have an elegant penmanship. If you got tips on how to make letters cute and pretty let me know.
