Hey Kit . I think that Megan doesn't really have opening and closing date of her Jane Austen challenges, you just write whenever you have time for it. However, I created my Austen activity "Once Upon a Jane Austen Activity"  where I tried to get some more people to do these challenges of her and get all Jane Austen MBes in return. It's a 3 months activity and tasks include Megan's Austen challenges. Mona and AmyJo already finished first month. Next month one of the tasks is to write for Darcy's challenge to get his MB so if you would like to join to all of us and work for the other Jane Austen MBes that Megan and I commissioned we will be glad to have you . Feel free to check what is it all about and how it's working. I know that you maybe need to have like some kind of commitment because the activity lasts three months instead of one but challenges are not so hard, or at least I think so .

Anyway, just wanted to let you know that we have all Jane Austen MBes available inside and if you start now I think you could finish all tasks that we had this month. Some folks signed up and never came back so we're in need for more participants .
Thanks for consideration.
