After Masterpiece Theatre’s “The Complete Jane Austen” aired, I began my own “Everything Austen” challenge where I watched every adaptation made of every novel. Then one year ago, I started reading each novel and rewatching the adaptations associated with each novel. In some cases, I have rewatched P&P more times. To report what I accomplished during Stephanie’s July 1, 2009 – Jan. 1, 2010, time frame, here’s my list:
1. Pride & Prejudice 2005
2. Pride & Prejudice 1995
3. Emma (novel)
4. Emma 1972
5. Emma 1996 with Kate Beckinsale
6. Emma 1996 with Gwyneth Paltrow
7. Joined JASNA
8. Sense and Sensibility (novel)
9. Sense and Sensibility 1995
10. Sense and Sensibility 2008
Currently I’m reading Mansfield Park, the novel, so my fun will continue. Following it will be Northanger Abbey. I thank all my fellow Twitter and blog Austen fans for bringing it more to life with their enthusiasm as well.
I missed this in 2009, will there be an Everything Austen 2010? (Please, please, please….)

Well, I’ve posted a list of what I read and viewed for the Austen Challenge. Now I just need to post the reviews! The new year kinda snuck up on me…
Letting you know I moved from LiveJournal (Imaginary~Dreamer) over to Wordpress and it’s now all on one page. I didn’t realize we were supposed to keep our original sign up entry. Opps. Sorry about that. I’m also in a new time zone, so I am posting this at 10:39 PM Mountain Time.
(Hope it’s okay I can link it here, I’m a bit confused.)
Thanks Stephanie for the awesome challenge!!!
