Happy 250th Birthday  to the lovely, genius and way ahead of her time, beloved English novelist, the one and only,  JANE AUSTEN ! Worth re-posting every year (and slightly edited and updated) for your FYI... Remembering and  celebrating her 250th birthday  today,  Jane Austen , the woman who wrote the original  Pride and Prejudice   novel (which had been made into  several TV and Film adaptations  including the  2005 film,  Pride & Prejudice ), which was her first (can you believe  unsuccessful ?!) submission to a publisher back in  1797  ( 228  years ago) titled  "First Impressions"  (later changed to  "Pride and Prejudice" ). She revised " First Impressions " and published it entitled " Pride and Prejudice " in  1813  ( 212  years ago, 11 months ago this year!).
