I especially like the idea of using classic heroines as guides for a modern heroine, rather than taking a classic one and writing yet another new riff on “what happened after” her original story ended. Frankly, I’m getting a bit weary of that tactic. Glad to know there’s a new writer in town who’s doing things differently.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4508267865632365231.post-34834835790499172092012-07-15T20:50:44.386-07:002012-07-15T20:50:44.386-07:00LKay: I love the very idea of personal inspiratio...LKay: I love the very idea of personal inspiration through literature, so I hope the heroine succeeds!

And could a person pick better heroines to emulate than Elizabeth Bennett and Jane Eyre? I have to admit to not having read Bleak House. Dickens is always a slog for me, but I may have to give this one a shot.LKayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07695520700903217705noreply@blogger.com
