'''Jane Austen''' (16 December 1775 – 18 July 1817) was an English writer of popular [[genre fiction]], with a principal focus on works about zombies. It has been said that "with a little more talent and application, she could have been the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephenie_Meyer Stephenie Meyer] of her day."{{citation needed}} It has also been successfully argued that her work was a significant influence on other zombie writers such as [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Shelley Mary Shelley] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mrs_Gaskell Mrs Gaskell].

Her principal claim to fame, however, is her relationship with the celebrated alien hunter [[George Wickham]], resulting in the notorious work known as ''[[Pride and Prejudice]]''. The resulting controversy all but destroyed her career, although she did write several more novels, all of which were received with general indifference from the book-buying public. Several more books appeared under her name posthumously, but most Austenologists regard these as little more than contemptible forgeries. ('''[[Jane Austen|more...]]''')

Published in 1811, its heady mix of recreational pharmacology, satanic rites and transgressive sex was too much for Regency society and it failed to find a conventional publisher. Austen herself had to resort to writing copies out by hand and distributing them on street corners - at least in the counties where the book had not already been banned. Even then, many copies ended up being used as kindling. However, in the intervening years, the book's reputation has grown and is now an acknowledged influence on the work of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irvine_Welsh Irvine Welsh] and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jilly_Cooper Jilly Cooper]..
