Stephanie’s Written Word is offer the Everything Austen Challenge starting on July 1st until January 1st 2010. Join the challenge and read or watch 6 Austen related books or movies in 6 months to qualify for a chance to win a copy of the miniseries Lost in Austen.

Here are my 6 choices
Movies:

Sense and Sensibility (1971)
Books:
Love, Lies and Lizzie, by Rosie Rushton
Mr. Darcy, Vampyre, by Amanda Grange
The Other Mr. Darcy, by Monica Fairview
Darcy and Anne, by Judith Brocklehurst
We are very happy to participate – but fear that we shall meet 6 more quickly than we would like to reveal.
Cheers, Laurel Ann, Austenprose
I will be watching Clueless (again) and Persuasion, the Amanda Root version. On my to read list are the naxos recording of Northanger Abbey, and Jane Austen's England, Jane Austen's Family, and Jane Austen and Food, all by Maggie Lane.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you will be joining in!!
ReplyDeleteI will finish this challenge in record time, as it is with most of us who love "Jane Austen Today" We constantly need a good dose of Jane Austen in one form or another to keep us happy and that's always a pleasure ! LOL
ReplyDeleteBTW,
My books are all in pretty good shape still but
I was watching "Emma" with Kate Beckinsale the other day and my video is breaking down, so it is a good time/challenge also to replace the ones that have been worn out too !
Oh yay! I'm all over this!
