JENNIFER CARNELL

Author of The Literary Lives of Mary Elizabeth Braddon.

Pictures from some of my Mary Elizabeth Braddon collection can be found on the Braddon pages (note: the pictures are going to be
down for a while until I redo that part of the website).

While it's been enjoyable, I have spent more time making webpages than books in the last three years, and so I am now going to cut back on that and concentrate on getting another Braddon back in print.

I was working on a section of the website devoted to Victorian advertising , but it turned out to be a big undertaking and I won't be updating it for the foreseeable future. People seem to have enjoyed these pages, but I would like to say that the adverts in no way qualify me to value your antiques! So instead of asking me for values or information on objects, I would advise you take them to your local auction house and ask to speak to someone there.

I can't reply to emails like that any more; and it has to be said 50% of people who have asked for help on other matters (including Braddon) don't bother to say 'thank you'...
