(the spelling in the title is deliberately wrong because it's how Jane Austen and other writers of the late 1700s sometimes spelled it [Smile]

)

Apparently, OSC inspired Skyboat Media (the producers of Ender's Game Alive - insert plug for more dramatizations of the Ender series here, because I would buy them all!) to do an audiobook of Evelina, by Fanny Burney, because of his love of Jane Austen and the connection thereof. There's a nice writeup of the project here: http://skyboatmedia.com/skybook-evelina/

Also, it looks like he did that thing he does on the Ender's Game audiobooks, where he has an afterward. I'm hoping there's a way I can get this soon!

Ooops, forgot to add that Emily Rankin, daughter of OSC, awesome actress, writer, etc (Laddertop, Jane Austen's Fight Club, reader of Bean in Ender's Game Alive, Impulse by Steven Gould, etc), is the narrator of the book itself. So even more connexions!
