Free Jane Austen. Lots and lots of free Jane Austen.

Well, everything Jane Austen is usually available free, since her books are in the public domain and all, BUT ANYWAY, Sourcebooks has made ten of their Austen-inspired titles (AKA Published Austen Fanfic) free in celebration of her birthday:

• Eliza’s Daughter by Joan Aiken
• The Darcys & the Bingleys by Marsha Altman
• Mr. Darcy Takes a Wifeby Linda Berdoll
• What Would Jane Austen Do? by Laurie Brown
• The Pemberley Chronicles by Rebecca Ann Collins
• The Other Mr. Darcyby Monica Fairview
• Mr. Darcy’s Diary by Amanda Grange
• Mr. & Mrs. Fitzwilliam Darcy: Two Shall Become One by Sharon Lathan
• Lydia Bennet’s Storyby Jane Odiwe
• Mr. Fitzwilliam Darcy by Abigail Reynolds

They're only available TODAY, so if you want 'em, download them ASAP!

CURSE MY LACK OF EREADER! [ETA: And the prices don't appear to have changed at Amazon or the Sourcebooks website. BUT AHA! They're free at Google Books and B&N.]

[ETA2: I have now downloaded 9/10 to my Google Books account. (I couldn't get Lydia Bennet's Story, sadly.) Now I just have to get a compatible device... which is pretty much anything but a Kindle. You see what you did there, Amazon?]
