Hello friends! I’m thinking of starting a new post series…and guess what? I’m inviting you to take part in it! (If you want to) 😉 If you were around for Austenesque Extravaganza in 2012, this is similar idea to what we did on Spotlight Saturday (which ended up being one of my favorite features for the event!) I spend so much time talking abo
ut what I read and discussing my favorite books and authors on this blog, but blogging is a two-way street for me. I love hearing from you – what you read, what are some of your favorite books and what are your thoughts! So that is why I’m starting the series back up again – enough about me, I want to hear about you!!!
WHO CAN TAKE PART?
- All voracious readers, bloggers, and reviewers (you don’t have to have a blog or write reviews to participate)
WHAT WILL YOU HAVE TO DO?
- Answer some questions about you, your reading habits, and your favorite novels. I came up with a bunch 😉 of questions, most of them are short-answer. You don’t have to answer them all, feel free to pick and choose.
Take some pictures of your books (at least 2). Us book lovers always love images of books grouped together! (even on an ereader!)
- Fill out the form below so I know you are interested and I’ll email you the questions! 😉
WHEN WILL THESE POSTS BE PUBLISHED?
- I’ll probably schedule 2-3 Ardent Austenesque Admirer posts a month, separating each post by a week or so in between.
IS IT OKAY TO DO ANYTHING EXTRA?
- Absolutely! This is your chance to post on my blog, so if you want to add anything fun, quirky, or creative
to your post, please feel welcome to. If you want to make a video, write an open-letter, share a story, add a giveaway – feel free to make this post your own!

FORM CLOSED

I can’t wait to see if there is interest in the Ardent Austenesque Admirers series!
Even if you don’t want to participate, do think this a series of posts you’d enjoy reading?
This sounds like a fun series of posts. I don’t know that I’m brave enough yet to do a post 🙂 but would enjoy hearing what others like to read, etc.
Whatever you are comfortable doing, Amy! I’d be happy to host you. 🙂
I remember enjoying these posts too. I’ll think about participating.
Would love to have you, Sophia Rose! You are a long-time reader of this blog, I’d love to know more of your thoughts on what you read!
I would like to participate but it takes a lot of time and I don’ t have it! :'(
But it’ s a great idea and I hope there’ll be readers with spare time, willing to join this new series!
I understand that! Thank you for commenting! I hope you enjoy reading the posts!
I submitted my info on the form, but I’m seeing it on the blog as “message sent” with my info/email info… Was it supposed to do that??
I got your submission! Thanks, Valerie, for wanting to take part! Will email you the questions tomorrow!
Sounds fun! I submitted the form.
Wonderful!! So glad you are game, Ginger! 🙂
I submitted the form and then it said “go back” so I hit that – did anything get submitted? I didn’t see any questions to answer.
Your form was successfully submitted! 🙂 The questions will be sent via email by me (probably tomorrow!)

Hi Meredith, great idea. I am relatively new to this site so may be join in next time however, I do love reading about what others read so looking forward to this new post.
Hi. Meredith,
I just submitted the form. I don’t have a lot of time to contribute in the next two to three months but if you’re going to continue after September, I could put something together.
Always interested in hearing how folk got into reading Jane Austen and, more recently, their experiences with Austenesque fiction.
Hi Meredith! What a great idea! I think I would like to participate but I’d like to wait until after September if that is okay with you…currently helping out my daughter and grandchildren and time is tight for the next little bit….also why I have been delayed in responding to my favourite blogs!!!
Love this idea!!:)
Sounds great! I look forward to reading about my fellow Janeites!
Awesome! 🙂
I just submitted the form. Got brave or stupid–I’m not sure which.
Brave!!! WOOT! I’m excited! I’ll send the questions soon!
