Interview with Peasemeal Brose

LH  It’s great to chat to you, PB, having connected a bit on Twitter and fb. I know you have a lot going on, so thanks for taking the time! PB Delighted to talk with you! LH So why don’t we start with you telling us how your love of Sanditon began? PB Well, I watched season one in January 2020, just before the world shut down, and found it really enjoyable - until it became clear that Charlotte was going to go for Sidney instead of Stringer. I watched (half-heartedly, eyes on my knitting) until the surprise ending, and while I know it broke many people’s hearts, I agreed with Theo James on it being much more interesting that way. It was intriguing, especially for an Austen-esque show - where were they going to take it from there??? Above all, I loved the idea of the first love not being the true love.  LH Oh I so agree. Jane Austen’s women didn’t have the luxury of that, so it felt really fresh to see it on screen.  PB Absolutely! I wanted another season because I really ...

Interview with Bilberry Lane

LH It's great to be interviewing you, Amanda, as we became friends through our shared love of Sanditon and fanfic, and you are fantastic support to loads of writers as well. It feels like most people who follow Heybourne fic will know you from your encouraging commenting on AO3! But I’m excited other people will get to know you more through this. So I didn’t know you before you started writing in the fandom, tell us how your love of Sanditon began? BL Well, I was relatively late to the party! My mum recommended Season One to me. I was pretty much Team Stringer, though, because I could never get past how patronising and angry Sidney was with Charlotte and Georgiana. And then, the way it ended, of course.  We saw it was cancelled, then renewed, and then I broke the news to my mum that her man Theo would not be back. She never recovered. I had love heart eyes for Colbourne after about a minute of him appearing on screen. I’m a sucker for a nerdy, hot recluse with kids. At first, I was...

LH So Hannah, it’s brilliant to have you as part of this series as your fic A Tale as Old As Time has basically been lauded by everyone I’ve interviewed! I think we can give you the crown in this fandom! DAGR This series has been absolutely brilliant, and I’m delighted to be a part of it! And you are so sweet to say - but as to any crowns in this fandom, I think we all wear one! It’s just too good to choose between so many fics.  LH I’m really excited to hear about your writing journey, and your love for this show. So tell us how your love of Sanditon began? DAGR  My love of Jane Austen and her works began in an eighth-grade English class where I stumbled upon a copy of Pride and Prejudice my teacher had tucked away in her library. I can still remember the smell of the pages, the quiet of the room as others read beside me, and I will forever be grateful for it. She leant me her copy the very next day and it’s been a lifelong affair every since, which I share with my mother....
