No, you...Yay! Second time was the charm, Ginna. <br /><br />No, you don't disappoint me with that answer. Persuasion is my first favorite of the Austen novels.

I have a soft spot for the book, plus I loved the adaptation with JJ Field and Felicity Jones. It was perfect to show their youth and personalities. I can see being inspired by those scenes. Cool that this is your second anthology, Sophia. Good luck with future writing endeavors.
