I’d argue Jane over Mary in P+P. Ooohh, even Anne could work. #AmReading @bookstodon #ReadingCommunity #Regency #Georgian #EmilyBronte #CharlotteBronte #AnneBronte #Victorian @romancelandia #JaneAusten

I would argue they are equal but for different reasons. #AmReading @bookstodon #ReadingCommunity #Regency #Georgian #EmilyBronte #CharlotteBronte #AnneBronte #Victorian @romancelandia #JaneAusten

Nottingham Forest plays today but I won’t know the score until after this has posted. I’m heading to my brother and his family this weekend to watch my nephew play basketball. (He’s 6!) I’m coming home Saturday afternoon and then back to my usual routine on Sunday.

What are you doing this weekend?

I would argue they would be a riot grrl band and that Emily would be the lead singer since she is full of rage.

It's Valentine's weekend! I'm working tomorrow, weekly virtual write-in on Sunday, and as for the holiday itself? No idea!

Austen: Harriet Smith would throw shade on TikTok. Brontë: Catherine would attempt to be an influencer on Instagram.

The Brontë canon sorely overlooks Anne.

I’m failing to think of someone specific but! I do want to say that MARY needs a glow up and badly.

This is my first weekend all month I’m at the library but the day is short, which works for me! Sunday is my usual morning write-in and PBS with Kristin in the afternoon. Sunday is also February 1st! Where did the time go??

Well, it’s sleet-y up here in N. Michigan so I would take Regency ballroom for $100, Alex! #AmReading @bookstodon #ReadingCommunity #Regency #Georgian #EmilyBronte #CharlotteBronte #AnneBronte #Victorian @romancelandia #JaneAusten

I’m teaching TWO classes tomorrow for two different writers group back to back so that is going to be busy! Sunday is write-in in the morning and PBS with Kristin in the afternoon. I try to make Sunday a day of no chores, but who knows what will happen.

Oh, this is easy: ROCHESTER! (Heathcliff is just misunderstood.) On the Austen side, Wickham is a walking red flag.

The Tenant of Wildfell Hall has married an asshole she thinks she can “fix”. It will not go well.

I can see why this one isn’t as popular as her sister’s works. But so far it’s my favorite. It shows a real grasp of people and while society has changed in the last two centuries, the core traits of people she describes has not.

I particularly appreciated the story of the alcoholic whose friends won’t let him go sober.

Tomorrow I’m teaching a workshop on research beyond AI as my side hustle, Nerd Girl Industries. Also, my two football teams, Wrexham and Nottingham Forest are playing (not each other). I’m going to catch the Wrexham game since it’s before my workshop but the Forest game, against Arsenal, starts while I’m teaching.

Tomorrow, under my side hustle, Nerd Girl Industries, I'm teaching a few workshops to a few writing groups. My Saturdays in January are all going to be like this, but I love teaching. My other plans are my Sunday write-ins and watching PBS with a bestie.

It’s about time we gave Anne some love, don’t you think?

"Bridget Jones' Diary" is one of my fav movies and I always watch it at least once during the holiday season. Since Bridget and Mark met at a New Year party her parents hosted, I plan to watch the movie this weekend.

What did you do for New Year and what are your plans this weekend?

My two favorite brands of (dark) chocolate are Tony Chocolonely’s and Hotel Chocolat. A local chocolatier does bean to chocolate and it is delightful. If you like chocolate, what are you favorite flavors or brands?
