		<title>Cowabunga, books are awesome!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Hello, lovely readers! Please come out and support us and reading at the West Hollywood Book Fair on September 26! We will be in hanging in booth B5, chatting up Austeneers, zombie fans, and even Brontëites. We&#8217;ll also be premiering our premiere film, working title A Truth Universally Acknowledged. You may remember that we shot [...]]]></description>

		<title>I think you&#8217;re thinking of somebody else</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Okay, people. Let&#8217;s talk about civilized. We, as Jane fans, get called civilized all the time. ALL the TIME. It&#8217;s in the news (to the extent that Janedom is in the news); it&#8217;s on the Web; it gets tossed around in casual conversation like it&#8217;s nothing.  And, of course, it&#8217;s only right. If anybody is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Tuck a little lace, my dear!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Recently I&#8217;ve been pondering this quote from Northanger Abbey, which is surprising full of clothes. It would be mortifying to the feelings of many ladies, could they be made to understand how little the heart of man is affected by what is costly or new in their attire; how little it is biased by the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Austenacious Exclusive!: Emma Thompson</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today we lucky ladies at Austenacious have the golden opportunity to bring you an exclusive interview actor/writer/producer/personal heroine Emma Thompson, whose Oscar-winning screenplay for Sense and Sensibility and general sense of brilliance has made her an icon for smart girls everywhere. We sat down at Austenacious Studios for a brief chat: Emma Thompson: Hello! I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Was Jane Austen black? Sometimes the answers are even better—in comic value, if not in orthographic correctness—than the questions. (Sure, she could have been. Hooray for honest questions?) (Oh, Yahoo! Answers, why can&#8217;t I quit you?)]]></description>

		<title>Dashing Dashwoods Dash Dastard</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We have spoken before about Jane Austen&#8217;s individualistic punctuation. Many of us feel that Austen&#8217;s incessant dashes, and other weird habits were ebullient—that we&#8217;d like to be as free as she was, even if our ever-copyediting hearts might tidy things up a little bit for other people. Now there is a fracas afoot regarding Austen&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Jane Austen Likes You: Felipe Ossa and Monetizing Emma</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Fangirls, prepare yourselves: there&#8217;s a new and potentially fascinating interdisciplinary star on the horizon. I was browsing the finance papers today, as one does, and came across this interview in Capital—you know, where we get all our Austen news—with playwright/finance reporter Felipe Ossa regarding his new play Monetizing Emma, recently premiered at the New York [...]]]></description>

		<title>On being Marianne, etc.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This week, world-wandering elder brother Mr. Ball has hung up his top hat  and arrived at the family country house for a much-deserved furlough from the competitive world of international diplomacy. The whole clan is sequestered away, in fact, for a period of long carriage rides, late-night Whist (aka Scrabble), and the kind of family [...]]]></description>

		<title>Jane Austen Sisters, Unite! (OK bros, you can unite too.)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Mariella Frostrup over at The Guardian recently wrote this in an advice column: Despite achieving a position in the modern world where we are not only self-supporting but also increasingly outshining the men, we act like a gaggle of competitive girls whose most important goal is how blokes view us. Female-to-female behaviour hasn&#8217;t evolved much [...]]]></description>

		<title>Eat Drink Austen</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lovely Jenn over at Citivolus Sus asked us whether she was the only Austenite who like beer. Well, I hardly think so. She even posted recommendations on which beers go with which books. I am, sadly, allergic to beer, but I do like to eat and drink (and travel), so here are my own recommendations [...]]]></description>
