Pimping strikes my fancy! If you live in the mid-Atlantic area and are a Jane Austen fan, this is something you should see!
While I am not the Austen aficionado that J is, I am very fond of Sense and Sensibility and Emma, and I am quite fascinated by the way Austen's work is both a reflection of her life and an invitation for modern authors to speculate and expand.
(What is the glut of austen-based books like Pride & Prejudice & Zombies or The Secret Diaries of Jane Austen or Mrs. Darcy except a for-profit version of fan fiction, I wonder?)
But I digress.
J sent pics and descriptions of her day trip to Bath during her trip to the UK, which made me quite envious. I'm not likely to get to the UK in the near future, but I might see if I can wedge a trip to NYC in some time before March, so that I can see The Morgan's Jane Austen exhibit.
