Please note: THE BRIDGET JONES MOVIES ARE NOT JANE AUSTEN ADAPTATIONS.

Also please note: the word “actor” can refer to a man or a woman.

We now return you to our regularly scheduled snarking.

(Yes, the Editrix is back, refreshed, renewed, and energized with much Jane Austen wub at the JASNA AGM–can’t tell you how many folks spotted us in our “Team Tilney” t-shirt and guessed our secret identity! Wifi connection not what we had hoped, so no liveblogging, but a full report to come, possibly tonight.)

Well, good for you, Pamela

The Observer brings us this relevant tidbit in an article about fan fiction:

A librarian in Idaho recently received a $150,000 advance from Simon & Schuster to publish a three-novel trilogy about a character from Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice.

The whole article is definitely worth a read.
