anxiety while writing my first novel; my children, Rebecca and Brian, for not saying their mom was crazy (okay, well, they didn’t say it much); and all the wayward children who have made our home your own—you know who you are—for making sure my life is never dull. I love you all.
Abigail Reynolds is a lifelong Jane Austen enthusiast and a physician. In addition to writing, she has a part- time private practice and enjoys spending time with her family. Originally from upstate New York, she studied Russian, theater, and marine biology before deciding to attend medical school. She began writing Pride and Prejudice Variations in 2001 to spend more time with her favorite Jane Austen characters. Encouragement from fellow Austen fans persuaded her to continue asking “What if…?”, which led to four other Pride and Prejudice Variations and her contemporary novel, The Man Who Loved Pride and Prejudice. She is currently at work on a sequel to Mr. Darcy’s Obsession, as well as the companion novels to The Man Who Loved Pride and Prejudice. She lives in Wisconsin with her husband, two teenage children, and a menagerie of pets.
