Miss Osborne

Miss Osborne has strong feelings about one Fitzwilliam Darcy (as portrayed by one Mr. Firth), enjoys long walks about the countryside, and has developed the appalling habit of cooking for her own dinner guests. She lives in Oakland, California.

Mrs. Fitzpatrick

Mrs. Fitzpatrick is this site’s resident expert on domestic bliss, but is also accomplished—in the Mr. Bingley sense—in the areas of reading, writing, and the visual arts. In moments of idleness, she enjoys tea, making conversation, and traveling with her barrister husband, whom she attracted by taking an ill-advised walk in the rain. She lives in Oakland, California.

Miss Ball

Miss Ball laments the decline of the choreographed social/group dance, stays on her guard against charming blackguards of all varieties, and dreams of spending her days becoming as accomplished as possible (again, in the Mr. Bingley sense). She has recently returned to California.

Austenacious

Austenacious began as an excuse to cook, eat, and watch BBC period dramas on Friday nights, and grew into an excuse to cook, eat, and talk about Jane Austen every day of the week. We believe fervently that Jane Will Keep Us Together, and hope that you agree. If not, there may be a rumble, and you don’t want to know where Jane keeps her nunchuks.
