Article on “Janeites” features JASNA Wisconsin region members
An article in Greater Milwaukee Today about Jane Austen fans features several members of JASNA’s Wisconsin region, which will be hosting this year’s Annual General Meeting in Milwaukee.
“Janeites,” a group of Austen fans that spans the globe, are members of an organization that celebrates Austen’s works — the Jane Austen Society of North America
Well, we suspect there are some Janeites “spanning the globe” who are NOT members of JASNA, but we know what she meant to say. 
Bowen encourages all Austen fans to explore JASNA and wants to squelch the stereotype — there is nothing “stuffy” about the group. “The life of the mind is important to this group and that’s refreshing in today’s society.”
Indeed! The Editrix is a member of JASNA and recommends it highly.
