Message:Thanks, Sarah, that's very helpful!
What I hope to do is to have the fun, romance and wit of Jane Austen but in an accessible, easy-read form. Don't know whether I'll succeed or not!

Message:I think Kristine is right most of my friends haven't read the books either. But I say that is because they are what my friends classify "old".I am interested in your book idea it sounds great!!Most of my friends have heard of Jane Austen as a classical author but not actually looked into her books and stories at all.

Message:Kristine: Many thanks for this - it fits in with what I guessed, but it's so useful to have it verified by your market research.

Message:Cora: I asked around at school for the information you asked for. Although a lot of people have heard of her, not many people at all have read any of the books. A few of them have seen "Becoming Jane" and the majority have seen the 2005 film adaptation of "Pride & Prejudice", starring Keira Knightley. I think that the main reason people don't read them is because a lot of teenagers don't read a lot, and Jane Austen's books are difficult enough to read when you don't like reading in the first place. The plotlines are something they'd like, but it's the language and the whole formal-looking image that surrounds Jane Austen's novels that turns them off them.

Message:Sarah: Thanks for the recommendations!

I'm working on a new book at the moment. It's called 'I was Jane Austen's Best Friend' and it's written in a diary form. It starts off with the two girls at a terrible boarding school and Jane gets very ill and the owner of the school refuses to send for her mother.
I suppose it is aimed at the young teenager.
Have you ever seen any of th Jane Austen films, or heard of any of the books?

Message:Dear Kristine,
Please don't worry - study is of the first importance now. I know that you will finish some time.
Now, I have a favour to ask you. Have you or any of your friends in school ever read any of the 6 Jane Austen books?
If not, would any of you want to read one?
Have you, or any of your friends, seen any of the films of the books, such as Pride & Prejudice, Sense & Sensibility, Mansfield Park, or Emma. Or any film about Jane Austen, such as 'Becoming Jane'?
I'm really interested to know these facts as I am doing a book about Jane Austen when she was about your age.
Thanks, Kristine.

Message:Cora: I feel like I have to apologise because, even though I thought I’d get the chance to do some writing between study, I’m not really getting the chance to do anything at all! I know you get a lot of stories that don’t get finished, I want to assure you that I do intend on finishing this one, just as soon as I get time!

Message:Aoibheann: How are you finding Harry Potter 7? Do you like it as much as the first books?
I don't think that I will visit the Gael Scoil again - not this year anyway - it would be boring for children to have to listen to me again - unless I was doing story writing, or something like that.

Message:Kristine: No, I haven't, though it is something that I've thought about as writing dialogue always seems to be easiest part of the writing process of a book.
My agent used to be a scriptwriter for Hollywood, BBC, ITV etc
