    Summary

    Charlotte Heywood is seeking domestic employment after tragic familial circumstances unfold. The Parker family is in need of a new maid. And it's almost Christmas.
    ✨HEA after a SLOW BURN 🔥🔥🔥
    ✨Chapters will become more episodic, hopefully with humor, plot twists, and short-lived angst.
    ✨Notes galore for anyone who wants to geek out with me. It's not 100% Regency kosher, but I tried.

    Summary

    Sanditon ends with heartbreak as Sidney Parker and Charlotte Heywood bid farewell to each other on the clifftops. This story starts at the point of their separation. Will they find their way back to each other and will all our protagonists get the resolutions that they desire?

    This has been a year in the making, amidst a global pandemic, and is my attempt to continue the story. I always wanted to write, but assumed it would never happen. The ITV/MasterpiecePBS adaptation of Sanditon changed all of that and inspired me and all the other fans to write our versions of a HEA. Thank you to all the authors who have gone before me - you are all trailblazers!

    Summary

    Hi! This story is a modern take that places our Sidlotte in a somewhat Hitchcock mixed with gothic novel-inspired tale. At least that’s what I had in mind 🙃. Let’s see if it works! I don’t want to give too much away in the summary.

    If this Sidlotte story has been done already, apologies! I haven't read all the great works out there yet!

    As with everything I’ve put on AO3, there will be a HEA after some twists and turns. I typically update one or two times per week, work permitting. For those interested…Butter is included 😊 as if I had a choice!

    Oh, and it’s rated mature but I’m really bad at ratings so there might (will) be some E as well…and typos (is that the T rating?), there will be unintended typos—consider it part of the mystery we can all solve!

    Summary

    Charlotte Heywood works for the Office for National Statistics in England. Her current assignment is going door-to-door to complete the Census Coverage Survey. Luckily for her, Sidney Parker is one of the select few chosen to be part of this survey…

    Story posted in real time from 26 May - 26 September 2021.

    Note 1: All ‘current’ events in this story, including the vaccine rollout and other Covid-19 information, were an accurate representation of the state of play in England (not necessarily the whole of the U.K.) on the day the chapter was uploaded. Will much of it frustrate you? Absolutely. Will you disagree with the actions of some of the characters with respect to the pandemic? Absolutely. Those reactions are also a reflection of reality.

    Note 2: Footnotes are provided where I deemed them appropriate. Please be sure to look at the version of any url from the date of the chapter (the Internet Archive should make that possible) as policies or procedures by the time you read the chapter may be different as the pandemic continues to evolve.

    Summary

    An unexpected seat change brings Sidney and Charlotte together on a flight, and find they are irresistibly drawn to one another, though something rather significant seems to stand in their way. Modern alt setting, slow burn, with some angst. A little inspired by Normal People, a little inspired by Richard Linklater's Before Sunrise/Sunset/Midnight series, and a little inspired by When Harry Met Sally. There will be a HEA for sure.

    Summary

    Disclaimer: Everything belongs where it should, with the amazing writing team and production team of Sanditon
    Disclaimer: I do not own any part of the Televised series Sanditon based on the Unfinished Jane Austen novel. no money is being made from this story.
    Disclaimer: This is being written to give closure to those haunted by the season 1 ending and hope that a (real) second season is written.

     

    So I'm kinda worked on an "elaborate" season 2 work up...(Get it?) Wink wink. and this is what happened...177 chapters and 6 months later.

Sidney finds that, despite his present engagement, he cannot school his heart to forget.

    Summary

    It's 2019, and the seaside town of Sanditon is celebrating its 200th anniversary with its first ever Regency fair. Recent graduate Charlotte Heywood settles into town for a month's vacation, to explore herself and figure out her future, and gets caught up in the lives of the new friends she makes. She does not expect to find a grand love adventure of her own, and that her trip to Sanditon might change her life forever. This story is a modern adaptation of Season 1, with some Regency costumes and balls for nostalgia, and no heart-breaking cliffhanger. Romance, emotion, maybe some angst, but ultimately a HEA.

    Summary

    Sidney Parker would do anything for his family, especially for his younger brother Arthur. When Arthur spots an exotic bloom at the local bowling alley, he calls on the one guy to help break the ice.

    Sidney Parker has been out of relationships since whats-her-face. The last thing he wants is to get involved with Arthur's romantic needs, but he would do anything for him. Even if that means going to the newly remodeled bowling alley near Bedford Place, the last place he would care to go.

    Of course, misery loves company, so he drags best friends Babington and Crowe.

    Summary

If things had been different, he would likely have been Musical Director of the London Symphony Orchestra by now, but life took him down a darker path. Widowed, jaded and lacking in inspiration, Sidney has all but resigned himself to his fate… until that is, he meets Miss Charlotte Heywood… Can our favourite couple overcome past hurts and difficulties and find true happiness with one another?

    A Modern Sanditon AU fanfic full of love, loss and misunderstandings which, after a little angst, will ultimately end with a HEA.

    Summary

    Charlotte Heywood believes in love and affection. Sidney Parker believes in being an outlier. Despite all their differences, there is one moment that binds them together. Forever, as it turns out.

    This story is basically about two people doing things in the wrong order: first getting engaged and then falling in love with each other.

    Wait, wait, wait, wait… they are getting engaged? Yeah, and with one Sanditon storyline gone wrong, the others will need some fixing as well. Picks up at the beginning of Episode 3.

    ❤️ A brooding hero, a feisty heroine, misunderstandings, substantial conversations, cricket, dances, romance and a happy ending, or: Sanditon. As it should have been.❤️
