Letters to Miss Bennet

by Christini

As Elizabeth goes about her life that has been rudely publicised by a certain Jane Austen, she recieves letters written on strange paper, with an almost foreign way of expression. Someone is not happy with Miss Bennet...

11. Pianos and Laziness

This is, very much a ghost of a letter. Still, I thought it brought up a valid point.

Dear Miss Elizabeth Bennet

I'm sure that you will agree with me here when I tell you that I find Lady Catherine de Bough to be the most insufferable woman alive in literary fiction. How rude of her to force you to play the piano when you are obviously unskilled and far unaccomplished to do so. But maybe you ought to have practised more – eh, Lizzy?

Your apparent lack of accomplishment is not only another way that you are unconventional, but also leads me to believe that you are inclined towards laziness and sloth. Go and practise that piano playing, woman! If Mary can do it, why can't you?

Silly Lizzie.

It's really only half a letter. But I genuinely have no idea what I was intending to say next, and I didn't want to ruin it but making something up.
