In which I wish I were going to be in Louisville

I've never been to Kentucky, but I hear it is a very nice place and now I am certain of it. The good people of Louisville are holding their 2nd Annual Jane Austen Festival on July 18-19. There will be tea and shopping and period sewing classes, capped off by a ball--what could be finer than that, I ask you? If you're interested, do have a look at the official website.

Also, I am informed that the audiobook versions of ALL three Julia Grey books will be available for re-download with narration by the estimable Ellen Archer beginning June 30 from Audible.com. Believe me when I tell you that I have just told you all that I know, but I am VERY pleased that both my publisher and Audible responded to urgent reader/listener requests that Ms. Archer be brought back to record. I can tell you that I received several e-mails from the recording geniuses when Ms. Archer was recording because she was determined to do a thorough and flawless job, and I have NO doubt she has done so. I am BEYOND happy about this. So, if you downloaded the audio version and were not satisfied with the quality of the narration, do pootle over to Audible and avail yourself of the new downloads.
