Final Austen Prep!
Dearest gentle reader,
It is with great joy that I must inform you of last night's writing activities. Our productive young writers were finalising their work in anticipation of this Sunday's event (beginning at 2:30pm at the MAST theatre, to which all are invited) and I must confess, this author is giddy with excitement. Our group shall be delighting us with contrasting passages: one set in the 1800s and its counterpart in 2025. Lady Ali Sparkes also assured me that there will be a bonnet involved for the performance - delightful!
I do so hope that you will be able to attend!
