Which Austen heroine are you?
I suspected as much.
While we're on the subject of Jane Austen, I'm currently reading The Lost Memoirs of Jane Austen by Syrie James. Actually, I'm currently avoiding reading it. I'm at the good part. If this were an Austen novel, it would end at this point. Unfortunately, I know how her real story ends... I just don't want to watch as it all goes pear-shaped! :-( I will eventually though, because the book is really good and I like the Jane 'character' too much to abandon her now. Is character the right word when it's a fictionalised real person?
Tomorrow I'm picking up Jane Austen in Boca by Paula Marantz Cohen from the library, as well as Book Lover by Jennifer Kaufman and Karen Mack. :-D Gotta make the most of the calm before that storm that will be my first batch of essays.
My test of a good novel is dreading to begin the last chapter. Thomas Helm

Haha I was waiting for this post! ;)
Hmm, character for a real person...? Maybe? I don't know. The first word that sprang to mind was "interpretation", but that doesn't seem right either. :/
Btw, did you see my many and numerous emails!? Especially the photo, in which my badge is crooked and one of my earrings is mysteriously levitating? Bahaha! :D
I got the same as you! I think the 'who would play you' question leaves it a little bit open to choosing which character you are though. Although not so much for me, since I knew which movie Emma Thompson was in, but not really anything about her character :-P
I'd say 'person' for 'character' in that case I think. Although 'character' is a perfectly good word for a person anyway.
