"He and I should not in the least agree, of course, in our ideas of novels and heroines. Pictures of perfection, as you know, make me sick and wicked."
-Jane Austen to her niece Fanny Knight, Letter of March 23, 1817

Welcome to the home of the Derbyshire Writers' Guild. We are a community of readers and writers of Jane Austen fan fiction with one of the oldest and largest archives of Jane Austen-based stories on the internet. Jane Austen (Dec 16, 1775 - July 18, 1817) is best known for her novels Pride and Prejudice, Sense and Sensibility, Emma, and Persuasion, and for her wit and social observations. We make no claims to be able to reach the literary heights of Miss Austen, but, because we all wish that she had lived longer and written more, we feel the need to expand on the world, the characters and the stories that Miss Austen created.

Our archives include over 2,500 stories, and more stories are posted to our message board every day. We have a community message board at Jane Austen's Tea Room, where we discuss all things Austen and a great deal more, and we have a place to share our non-Jane-Austen-based creative writing: A Novel Idea. Come and share your love for the works of Jane Austen with us!
