Jane Austen, Geologist?

Jane Austen, Action Doll, patted the granite spire before her. She admired its solidity and solitariness. "If rocks could speak, the stories they could tell us," she said. "Oh, and the scolding they might give us." "Dear me, where has my rock pick gone?" My theme for this year's challenge is Jane Austen, Action Doll, Seeks a New Career .

Jane Austen, Florist?

Jane Austen, Action Doll, pondered the flower stand on the street corner in the busy financial section of the city. She loved the sight of the white buckets full of gerber daisies, tiger lilies, roses, carnations, gladiolas, baby breath, gardenias, snapdragons, and sunflowers. "They're so beautiful." Jane took a deep breath. "So fragrant. Mmmmmmm."   "Yes, this could be the perfect alternative to being an author," said Jane. She stepped into the flower stand to try her hand as a floral vendor, much to the surprise of the florist.  Jane even brought her own apron.  My theme for this year's challenge is Jane Austen, Action Doll, Seeks a New Career .

Jane Austen, Exotic Dancer?

  "A career as an engineer or an epidemiologist sounds exciting," said Jane Austen, Action Doll. "But, I love to dance." Jane stepped into a cha-cha-cha, transitioning smoothly into the samba.

From the fifth step, she stretched into a modern dance pose, did a few cartwheels, paused, then tap danced across the room ala Eleanor Powell. Jane ended her impromptu dance with a bit of flamenco. "Perhaps I shall give exotic dancing a try." My theme for this year's challenge is Jane Austen, Action Doll, Seeks a New Career . To check out other A to Z participants, click here .

The egret looked up from a bridal magazine. She immediately became excited seeing the huge grin on the wedding planner. "Tell me! tell me! I can't even start guessing." "It's a regal family who will enchant us all with their gossamer wings of hues of bright orange and black." Edwina the Egret gasped. She jumped up and down. She clapped her wings with much delight.
