Leenie Brown fell in love with Jane Austen's works when she first read Sense and Sensibility followed immediately by Pride and Prejudice in her early teens. As the second of five daughters and an avid reader, she has always loved to see where her imagination takes her and to play with and write about the characters she meets along the way. In 2013, these two loves collided when she stumbled upon the world of Jane Austen Fan Fiction. A year later, in 2014, she began writing her own Austen-inspired stories and began publishing them in 2015. Leenie lives in Nova Scotia, Canada with her two teenage boys and her very own Mr. Brown (a wonderful mix of all the best of Darcy, Bingley and Edmund with healthy dose of the teasing Mr. Tillney and just a dash of the scolding Mr. Knightley).

I am praying for you and yours. Take care, stay safe.
Thank you. 🙂
Well, your 2022 certainly ended with a bang, so to speak. I hope 2023 will improve for you and your family; I note you are finding the positives as you always seem to do and, as you say, it is a blessing that your husband suffered no worse injuries.
Sadly, I am not an believer in the power of prayer but I will be thinking of your family and wishing you all the best. Obviously your writing will have to take a back seat but sometimes life overtakes us and I am sure Elizabeth and Darcy would approve whoeheartedly of your support for your partner in life.
Take care xx
My writing has taken a bit of a step back out of necessity. Things are still happening there but slowly. Thank you for the good wishes. 🙂
Leenie,
I will be praying for you and your family, especially your husband. I can emphasize with the “not sitting still part.” I had to get a shot of cortisone in my right knee 😩 Thursday because it had been giving me so much pain, even with the knee brace. Please tell hubby not to “push it.” He will be sorry if he does. I share this from experience! Pain is the signal that you are doing too much and your knee/leg needs a break! I didn’t listen 😕. Now I have to fight through Brooklyn traffic to get an x-ray to see what else is going on with my knee because it’s still sore 😫 and swollen! Please tell hubby to sit on something that he can scoot on and keep busy so that he doesn’t make you and himself crazy!
As for your writing, use this situation for a novella! When has Mrs. Bennet ever been injured? Could she fall and be with child at the same time? It would surely drive Jane crazy and show her in a different light! Just saying!
Blessings!
Joan
Oh, I’m sorry to hear about your knee. Ouch! And traffic? Yuck! I’m not a fan of traffic. Lol Thanks for the prayers and the encouragement!
