Game the Twenty-Fifth: Ask Mrs. Bennet

Hello there, my fine friends.  You have all heard of advice columns, yes? Well, that's what this week's amusement will be based on.


Your job is to come up with both an asking letter and an answering letter-- the asking-for-advice letter can be written in the style and character of... well, anybody you want. It could be yourself, it could be a character from a book, from another period drama, or nobody in particular--whatever you think is going to turn out the wittiest. The advice-giving letter must be written, of course, by Mrs. Bennet. (Yes, thank you, Mary. I think we had all apprehended that much.)

If you're confused, let me know in comments and I'll help you out, but for now I'm going to leave the explaining at that.

You can write up to three sets of question-and-answer letters. Post it/them on your blog and leave the link in a comment, or if you don't want to/cant do a blog post, just email it to me at shelvesinthecloset95{at}gmail{dot}com. I'll accept answers through Saturday the 8th, and post the winner that night or the next day.  I'll be choosing whichever one strikes me as the funniest and/or cleverest. :)

Good luck!
