Very sad to hear this. your site was one i checke very often. i wonder what will happen to then Darcy brothers? It was an high point every week to read the new chapter. But live moves on and I wish the best for it.

I thought it was a bunch of authors in charge. I really would like to know what happened. Funny that there’s no explanation. Must really be bad if you’re not saying and that you said you’re trying not to say anything negative (about anyone or anything?). Sorry, I can’t help being nosy; I read mysteries! I’ll just say that you authors are too busy to blog. If you can recommend a similar site with giveaways, that would be great. Hope you’ll leave the site up so we can go back and read all the posts and comments we missed.

Does this mean that the January contest winners won’t be picked? More time to enter other contests, though. I thought Regina Jeffers was in charge. A few months ago I won Miss Darcy Falls in Love, which I already had. I asked Regina if I could pick a different title but she never responded and I ended up receiving a double from Sharon Lathan! I guess I’ll trade it on Paperback Swap. I’m sure someone will appreciate the signed copy.

Lots of authors are busy and then the blogs close. I can think of a couple of other ones: The Goddess Blogs and Murder, She Writes (I think one author stayed).

Hi Sharon! I was shocked to see the news! I had no idea, and still don’t, but it’s none of my business. Anyway, wishing you all the best! I’m now following you on Bloglovin’…I don’t know why I wasn’t before! I guess I figured AuAu was enough to keep tabs on you! 😉

It’s sad when things we love and look forward to come to an end, but I feel 2014 will be a year for new beginnings for many of us. I’d like to say thank you! I will miss Austen Authors, it was something I looked forward to spending time with each week and I especially liked reading the continuing stories that would appear almost each week. So thank your Sharon for your input into it, I know there are a lot of us, yourself included, who will miss it on many levels.

As I always say Sharon EVER ONWARD!! We women tend to take everything to heart but in this instance use it as another growing experience, back on the horse and ride! 😉

I am so sorry this is happening. I have enjoyed your site very much. But there is something I must share with you that I hope will give peace and understanding as to how a person such as yourself can reach out and make a difference. In 2008 I had a very bad year with 4 major surgeries to rebuild my jaw. There were lots of complications and I was in a lot of pain and bed ridden for most of the time. I ordered your first book and fell in love with it and could not wait for the next. During that terrible year and the following years,( because I still live with a lot of pain), your books started me on a road I never thought would happen, for I was never much of a reader. Your books made me laugh, cry and want to be in the world you had recreated. I have become an avid reader thanks to you, YOU MADE BE WANT TO READ EVERY P&P BOOK I COULD GET MY HANDS ON. Thank you for helping me through the pain and giving me something to focus on. God Bless You Always…………Linda

I agree with Carol ^^…it doesn’t matter what happened IMO, I’ll follow you wherever you go. You have to do what is right for you and stay true to yourself. Everyone else will do their own thing. Raising a glass to you.
