I appreciate especially your emphasis on the authenticity of style and characters in Expectations of Happiness, because these are very important to me and are an integral part of my work on Austen sequels. I feel very strongly that a writer who chooses to produce a sequel to a great classic, must respect the intentions and values of the original author and this is what I have tried to do, while creating an entertaining and credible atory.<br /> Thanks again and I am very happy that you enjoyed the book.<br />Best regards,<br />Rebecca Ann CollinsRebecca Ann Collinshttp://www.rebeccaanncollins.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521348297206014365.post-70978198183245847502011-10-31T18:02:42.722-05:002011-10-31T18:02:42.722-05:00Wonderful review, Laura!
