200 years after the publication of Pride and Prejudice, Melanie Kerr is
giving away the eBook of her new novel, whichtreats readers to the complete and
dramatic history of Mr. Darcy and Mr. Wickham. Follies Past:a Prequel to
Pride and Prejudice, will be available to download for free HERE from February 10 – 14, 2014.
To read
this book is to step back into the charming world of
Jane Austen’s England, to pass a few more hours with some of her beloved
characters, sympathetically portrayed as they might have been before ever they
came to Netherfield.
In Pride and Prejudice, everything hinges
on a letter which Mr. Darcy gives Elizabeth - a letter setting forth all his
dealings with Mr. Wickham. These facts, supplied by Austen herself, are at the
heart ofFollies Past. The drama begins almost a year before the opening
of Pride and Prejudice itself, at Pemberley, at Christmas. We follow
young Georgiana Darcy to London, to Ramsgate and to the brink of a perilous
elopement. Along the way, readers will discover a host of new characters, with
compelling histories of their own.Authentic in its use of language andmeticulously
researched, Follies Past is a truly diverting entertainment.
Melanie
Kerr has not only penned and published Follies Past, she has also
scripted, directed and produced three film-style book trailers, for which she
personally designed and created all the period costumes. She also planned and
executed a highly successful book launch last November at the Fairmont Hotel Macdonald, featuring live music, dramatic reading and
a real live Mr. Darcy. She is currently planning a book tour to promote her
novel, while raising her two young sons and carrying on a busy legal practice.
Follies Past is her debut novel.

(blinks) she personally designed and created all the period costumes.... AND has two little kids... AND has a husband and law practice....
Does she have a time-travel machine?? What is her secret to making time to write, with this busy schedule? WOW!
I should clarify that I had previously designed and made the costumes, for myself and friends when we attended the Jane Austen Festival in Bath 3 years running. So I didn't make them with the kids under my feet. But I do wonder myself when I actually wrote the book. I think of it as being like a junkie - I will always find a way to get my fix. I was addicted to writing this book, plus I spend a lot of time driving to itinerant court locations, and I would compose the chapters in my head as I drove, so all I had to do was type it out once I got to a computer. I do hope you enjoy the book, and that you consider leaving a review on Amazon or Goodreads if you get a chance and feel so moved.
thank you!
You are most welcome. I hope you like it!Do share the link with your friends, as this is the last day to get the book for free.

Hello to every one out here, am here to share the unexpected miracle that happened to me three days ago, My name is Jeffrey Dowling,i live in TEXAS,USA.and I`m happily married to a lovely and caring wife,with two kids A very big problem occurred in my family seven months ago,between me and my wife so terrible that she took the case to court for a divorce she said that she never wanted to stay with me again,and that she did not love me anymore So she packed out of my house and made me and my children passed through severe pain. I tried all my possible means to get her back,after much begging,but all to no avail and she confirmed it that she has made her decision,and she never wanted to see me again. So on one evening,as i was coming back from work,i met an old friend of mine who asked of my wife So i explained every thing to her,so she told me that the only way i can get my wife back,is to visit a spell caster,because it has really worked for her too So i never believed in spell,but i had no other choice,than to follow her advice.
