    Obviously, I'm a massive Austen fan Stevie.... sorry!

  • @iMassiniman I might consider still entering you in the competition is you could write a convincingly Austen-ian ending to Pride and Prejudice that actually involved Ashley Cole : P

  • @SableCaught Hmm, this is a great challenge if i'd actually read P&P, yes I said it, please, don't send me to the gallows! I could find a summary though :3

  • @iMassiniman I might send you a copy of P+P instead! How can you not have read it?

  • @SableCaught That would probably be more worthwhile. But I have so.many.books.to.read -.-

  • @iMassiniman Yes, but you forget the crucial rule that the books I tell you to read are more important : P

see all
