Hi Rae Elaine! Thanks for checking out
Charlotte Collins, and I totally agree that there are many Austen minor characters whose stories would be very interesting to follow. I love the idea of Anne as the Scarlet Pimpernel or spy. That would be fun.
I will have to look into your saga! 600,000 words! That is a huge accomplishment, and you are so right. It is easier to cut text than add it. Are you working on publishing it?
