"Emma" novelist Jane (6)

I believe the answer is:

austen

(Other definitions for austen that I've seen before include "Jane, English novelist" , "Persuasion author" , "Future woman of note" , "15 [JANE] the writer" , "Jane . . . . . . wrote 'Pride and Prejudice'" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
