THE GANG’S ALL HERE — Sabrina and her action figures (that’s Jane Austen in the green jacket). |

Two years ago for Christmas, my agent gave me a Jane Austen action figure. I promptly put Jane on my desk as a lark. Then I bought a Mac, and my brother asked if I’d tried the software Comic Life. When he showed me how to use it, I thought it was fabulous. I had done cartoons on my site, but Comic Life made it so much easier. A month later, my husband (again inspired by the Jane Austen thing) bought me a Will Shakespeare figure for yet another Christmas present. Except this time Will was more of a caricature. And he was short. When I put the two figures next to each other, I just had a flash on how they would interact as action figures. And that was it! Will and Jane were born.
