Susan Adriani has been a fan of Jane Austen and her beloved characters for decades. Originally from New England, she attended a small art college, where she majored in Illustration.

In 2007, after contemplating the unexplored possibilities in one of Miss Austen’s most celebrated novels, Pride and Prejudice, she began to write her first novel-length story, The Truth About Mr. Darcy (previously self-published as Affinity and Affection).

With encouragement from fellow Austen enthusiasts she continued, and is currently at work on her second book and several novellas, one of which will be released in 2013. She lives in Connecticut with her husband, young daughter, and a very impertinent cat.
