Pemberley and Beyond is a podcast for those who love Austen, Gaskell, and the many lovingly written fanfics they’ve unintentionally unleashed upon the world. Standing on the shoulders of literary giants etc... I’m Cat, your host: long-time JAFF reader, inveterate caffeine addict, and general literary meddler. Each episode, I’ll chat through a different JAFF or GIN (that’s Gaskell-Inspired Novel, not the beverage, though you’re welcome to bring your opinions on both), prod at some of its tropes, and suggest a companion read from beyond the ballroom (aka the JAFF and GIN-iverse).Cat Dashwood

    Hello, and welcome to Pemberley and Beyond — the podcast where we dive into the ever-expanding world of Jane Austen fan fiction (JAFF for short).

    New lives, new loves, fresh drama… and tropes that just keep turning up like Wickham at a wealthy heiress’ door.

    I’m Cat — an Austen enthusiast, longtime JAFF reader, and possibly the ersatz English version of Miss Erstwhile, with just enough cash for a podcast mic… but not quite enough for a trip to Austenland.


    Whether you’re new to JAFF or you’ve read enough Darcy reimaginings that the multiverse itself can barely contain them, come join me for a warm, slightly opinionated wander through the stories that carry Jane’s (and sometimes Elizabeth Gaskell’s) legacies forward.
