In 1793 when Jane Austen was 17, she became an aunt in January and in April. We have a June letter from her in which she sent one of the infants two short stories referring to these gifts as Miscellanious Morsels, which I found an appropriate name for a blog. Apologies to Miss Austen for not also borrowing her spelling, but red squiggly lines and text messages informing me of my error, I found too much to bear.
Yours &c., Angie
