Otherwise known as license to ramble!

Left to Follow isn't quite my first fanfic ever (that would be this chapter), but nearly, and really the first one written from within fandom, in response to fandom. And it is my first Austenfic, which seems appropriate for today. Er, yesterday by now, but it was today when I wrote this. Okay.

I'm going to assume everyone who reads this has already read the story and knows how it ends (or they...wouldn't be reading?), so spoilers, I guess.

I found Austen fandom in 2004 and lurked for about a year - until I finally threw a fit over one of fandom's more inoffensive Sues.  So, in summer of 2005, I wrote this - inspired mostly by fanon, partly by Darcy's careful explanation at the end of P&P, and a good deal by my desire to screw with people. 

So, with no more ado - *maniacal laugh* - my very first Austenfic:
