The biggest Jane Austen conference in the US isn’t until October, but registration opened today.  I registered 40 minutes after it opened and some events were already full.  😦  But it’s good to know there are so many Jane Austen fans out there!  There were still lots of great events that I did sign up for (listed below). It’s in Washington DC this year so I plan to really do it up.  I’m hoping to see lots of friends at the AGM!
