Follow Friday: Jane Austen Society of America


What could be more appropriate than to urge Jane Austen fans to follow the various Jane Austen Societies? They exist all over the world, but the one we will feature this Friday is the Jane Austen Society in America with all its affiliates, such as JASNA Central New Jersey or JASNA New York or in Vermont!

Seen on the Blogosphere: Jane Austen Centre Sale and Other Sundry Matters

Oh, how lovely! The Jane Austen Centre Gift Shop is having a sale. Please click on this link and look at all the wonderful JA offerings at 10% off if you spend 60 pounds!

Every week, the Jane Austen in Vermont ladies write a roundup of Jane Austen news. They found this new blog from Australia, Rethinking Jane Austen. Welcome on board, Jane fans Down Under.
Have you joined the Jane Austen Society of America? If not, you might consider doing so. At $30 per year it is a bargain. As a member you will receive JASNA News three times per year and Persuasions, a wonderfully thick magazine filled with erudite articles about Jane Austen. In addition, you can attend the annual 3-day annual meeting, which is in Chicago this year. (See sidebar for details.) No, I won't be going, unfortunately (or fortunately). I had a paper accepted at another conference being held on precisely the same dates in Little Rock, Arkansas. Vocation vs. avocation? Oh, dear. Since my pup eats loads of kibbles and bits, I had to choose vocation.

Contests and free giveaways galore on this site! There are two consecutive contests on this site at this time. Goodness, what a cornucopia of book giving.
