About the Author
Jane Austen (1775-1817) was an English writer who first gave the novel its distinctly modern character through her treatment of ordinary people in everyday life. She published four novels during her lifetime: Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814), and Emma (1815). Northanger Abbey and Persuasion both published posthumously in 1818. Her novels have become widely celebrated, timeless classics.
Stacy King is a freelance writer, editor and modiste based in Toronto, Ontario. Her main focus is writing for middle grade and young adult audiences, particularly fantasy and historical fiction. Her most recent work includes the Dungeons and Dragons' Young Adventurer's Guide series for Ten Speed Press, a new-player friendly introduction to the world and concepts of the iconic role-playing game. She was the founding editor for the Manga Classics series, adapting western literary classics into Japanese graphic novel formats. She currently lives in downtown Toronto with her husband, comics writer Jim Zub, and has never quite gotten over her love of playing dress-up.
