Welcome back to Wordless Wednesdays. As I start these up again after my summer break, the plan is to not post every week. I have not settled on a frequency yet. This week’s post goes well with both the first and second chapters of From Tolerable to Lovely since the story begins at the Meryton Assembly and this was the video I had playing on repeat while writing chapter 2’s dance scene. 🙂

“Do you dance, Miss Elizabeth?”
“I do when asked, Mr. Darcy.” She quirked an eyebrow and waited.
“My apologies, that did not come out as I meant.” Darcy gave a small self-deprecating laugh. “I believe what I meant to ask was, do you wish to dance, Miss Elizabeth?”
The half-smile that she wore twitched, and Darcy was sure that she was going to laugh, but she managed to suppress the urge. Her eyes, however, danced in merriment.
“Indeed, I do wish to dance. Did you have a particular partner in mind for me?”

Oh, this sounds like it’s going to be a fun novel based on Darcy and Elizabeth ‘s conversation.
I’m glad you enjoyed this clip. I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint you because it’s only going to be a novelette. (About 10,000 words and all from Darcy’spoint of view 🙂 ) But it should be fun
It sounds co cute.. Can’t wait to read
I’m glad to hear you’re looking forward to it. 🙂
I loved the Teatime Tales. It was so much fun reading that excerpt again. Thanks for the reminder that I really need to read this again. You keep tempting me, Leenie. How am I to read your new stuff when I’m busy rereading your old stories? Time… I need more time. Oh, well, all in good time. Blessings, stay safe, and healthy.
I could use some more time as well but for writing. (And then what would you do? LOL)
Enticing excerpt. I haven’t read this one before. I always enjoy watching dancing like this. makes me wish I was 40 years younger.
I’d also need to have some coordination! 🙂 I’m much better at watching it than doing it should think. LOL
