Yayyyy!!! Today is Jane’s birthday!!!
The amazing 33! Woohoo!!!!
Happy Birthday to the best Best Friend and Co-Blogger a girl could ask for!!
I wish I was there to celebrate with you, Jane! But I know you’re having a blast vacationing with your man in Palm Springs! 🙂
Even though you lose an hour of your day to Daylight Savings Time, we’re going to officially call this Jane’s complete birthday week! So there will be many hours more added to the celebration time!
Thanks to our wonderful readers and friends for joining us as we all continue to celebrate birthdays together!
Love you!!!
OMG I'm Thirty 
Happy Birthday Jane, FYI, today is International Women’s Day. Since you are a writer, here is some inspiration for you!
Aphra Behn
A playwright, translator and spy, Behn (also known as Astrea) has a good claim to being the first Englishwoman to make a living out of her writing. In the centuries after her death in 1689, her plays were dismissed as indecent because of their focus on female sexuality (“The stage how loosely does Astrea tread/ Who fairly puts all characters to bed!” wrote Alexander Pope in 1737). Recent feminist scholars have rediscovered her writing, and have made the case that the publication of her prose fiction Oroonoko, the story of a slave, was a key moment in the development of the English novel.
