Romance Bandits interviews author Janet Mullany who announces the forthcoming release of an erotic e-novella inspired by Jane Eyre: Reader, I Married Him.

What’s next for Janet Mullany?
This year is a huge writing/publishing year for me. I have an e-novella coming out next month from Loose-Id, Reader, I Married Him, which is a dirty riff on Jane Eyre. (Christie Kelly)

On her website she defines the novella like this:

March, 2010 from Loose-Id. What if it was Mr. Rochester chained up in the attic? An erotic e-novella based on Jane Eyre by Charlotte Bronte, Reader I Married Him.

The Macomb Daily tries to convice its readership that March is a great time to read:

What a hoot it would have been to have met authors such as Ernest Hemingway, Charlotte Bronte or Laura Ingalls Wilder or to have attended the midnight release of Charles Dickens' "A Tale of Two Cities" or Hemingway's "A Farewell to Arms." (Gina Joseph)
