I've arrived late at this tailgate, and now I'm eager to read more vignettes. This really had me laughing. Darcy in modern Atlanta would indeed be swarmed by every grifter looking for a handout. Very imaginative, Kate. Loved the dialogue. Well done.

Ha! Darcy and Elizabeth tailgating is incredible 😂 and bringing in Fanny Dashwood was such a fun choice! I lived in Georgia for three years and so this came to life for me easily.

What a hoot!! I do love Darcy as a “Ramblin Wreck,” and enjoyed the cameo from the intolerable Fanny Dashwood. Looking forward to the rest of the series!
