Jane Austen in Vermont 
Jane Austen changed my life. Her work started me off on a long
search for others who could write with humor, good sense, and
keep me entertained. Patrick O’Brian is the perfect example- he
wrote about people during the same period in history, he wrote
entirely different kinds of stories but with the same feeling and
sensitivity as did Jane. Thanks, Jane

Beautiful response Ruth! – and as long as we search for other writers, we always find that no one can quite compare – why re-reading her is such a joy! – love your Patrick O’Brian mention!
Best,
Deb
