Interesting Things About Me


I told you I would make a post about cool stuff about me! Originally, I had this huge post about how great I am, but my brother said it made me sound conceited. I am most definitely NOT conceited. It's not my fault I'm so awesome! Gosh! Well, back to the point. Read on if you dare! It's scary how great I am!
Do you know how I told you a little while ago that the prince liked my books? Not only that, but I was given a private tour of his palace by the head librarian. When the librarian let it slip that prince dude wanted me to dedicate my next book to him, I was furious. I left the castle enraged to do exactly not that. My family told me to listen to the prince because if the public knew that I met the future King, they would buy my book. I gave in and wrote Emma in his honor.
In addition to that, most of my novels were made into movies or TV shows. Sense and Sensibility was made into 2 TV serials, a movie staring Emma Thompson and Kate Winslet, and a Tamil movie version called Kandukondain Kandukondain. Pride and Prejudice was made into 3 movies, one of which starred Keira Knightley and was Oscar nominated. In addition to that, there has been 2 TV shows, 4 plays, a countless adaptations. I would tell you about all the other books and what they have been made into, but I'm running out of room, so off we go with the next interesting fact.
I originally started writing stories to amuse family members and close friends. I soon realized that I was gifted at writing and began to write longer works, some of which eventually went through some changes and became books. This is how Sense and Sensibility came to be.
That's it for now! I am getting a headache from staring at this light box that you can write on. My eyes are sore... What ever happened to pen and ink? You're gone for a few centuries and when you come back, this!
