Dear Jane

Dear Ms. Austen,

I know you are pretty much long gone, but I have so many questions I would like to ask you! How can a midddle class woman of no education who has never been married whrit the six most flawless, romantic novels of all time. When I read your books, I can identify with the heroin everytime. In Pride and Prejudice, I am like Lizzie in so many ways! I must admit, I hold grudges secretly, just like Elizabeth does for Darcy. In Mansfield Park, Fanny is in love with a close friend. I think that has happened to almost every girl EVER.

I also wish to have lived in the Victorian times and I want to be an author. Thank you for making way for other female authors to make their mark.

Emily Perkins
