I totally understand and would be petrified myself of writing fic for a Brontë novel. You can help me brainstorm prompts! So far I've got:
(a) Shirley returns to Fieldhead as Shirley Keeldar, Esq. in truth and starts courting Caroline.
(b) Rich and Eccentric Miss Keeldar goes traveling with Caroline as her lady's companion, more or less tropey get-togethers ensue.
(c) A point of view shift! I don't expect too many people to jump on it, but I'd love to see some of that trademark Brontë intense first-person POV applied to this book.
(d) Magic – there's already so much magic just hanging out at the edges of the book, I'd love to see it kicked up a notch to Shirley and Caroline outright having adventures in Faerie, meeting actual mermaids, etc.
...and that's where I'm at. Thoughts?
