One of the ways to get involved is a little questions post! You can answer these questions on your blog to spread the word about Jane Austen Week. When you post your questions, leave a comment so I can put a link to your blog! Here are the questions! And remember to decorate your posts with pictures!

That sounds like a really good idea! I do not have a blog, but I will still be looking at the answers given.
ReplyDeleteHow exiting Miss Elizabeth! I'll be following along with great interest! I love all of these blog buttons and it was difficult to decide between the Northanger Abbey button (my favorite novel) and the Mansfield Park button (because I'm reading the book right now) but I finally decided on the NA button! I'm really looking forward to this event!

Hooray!!!! Love it! I know this is going to be SO fun! I put up the P&P button, but it was close with Emma. :) I will post about this soon!
ReplyDeleteThere, I just published a post. Also, you'll do a new post when you get the questions up, as well as posting them here, won't you? I don't want to miss them!
ReplyDeleteCharity,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the post. Yes, I would put up an announcement when I post the questions. I think I'll post them in a day or two so everyone has a chance to start writing them before Jane Austen Week starts.
Wow! What could be more welcome to me?! How exciting! Jane Austen week! Yay! Hooray!!!
ReplyDeleteHappiness. =D
I tried posting, but the button didn't show up! Any ideas?
ReplyDeleteThe P&P button is beautiful!
Sarah,
ReplyDeleteAre you posting it under the HTML setting in the post page? Or in the Design Gadget for Java/HTML? If that doesn't work, let me know so I can take a closer look at the code.
How exciting! I've put the Northanger Abbey button up on my blog :) I can't wait for the event to begin!

Sounds exciting! I added the Northanger Abbey button to my blog, by the way. Can't wait to see what the Austen Week will be like.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful idea! I put the P&P one in a post I did about it, and and I put an Emma one on my sidebar! :)
ReplyDelete~*Emma*~
Thank you! It works now.
ReplyDeleteI'm working on the filling out the questions. :)
ReplyDeleteIt occurred to me last night that it might also to be fun to have a question along the lines of "Who do you think the three worst bad guys in Jane Austen's novels are?" Maybe the one about who bugs me most covers that, but. Just a thought. :)
Charity,
ReplyDeleteI meant number 7 to cover that, but it was a great suggestion!
What a wonderful idea. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea, you had! I've posted one of your buttons and I'm ready to answer the questions in a post on my blog, My Jane Austen Book Club.
