There are in fact "sequels" or a sort to Pride and Prejudice(which I love btw) but they are NOT written by Jane Austen herself. I've seen these sequels written by another autor, I think one of them is called "Mr. Darcy takes a Wife" by Linda Bedoll or something. If you're looking for a direct sequel, there is none by Jane Austen. However if you are curious as to what others in her place have come up with, you might want to try looking at those by that one author...From what I see she's written a few books based on Pride and Prejudice. I can't say for certain how the books by Berdoll are since I haven't read them myself, but I'm sure you can look up reviews on Amazon.com.
Hope this helps. :)

No, Jane Austen did not write a sequel to Pride and Prejudice but as a few others have mentioned already, if you enjoyed that you might also enjoy her other books: in particular "Sense and Sensibility" and "Emma". I know Emma has also been made into a movie (quite a few years back, not sure if there is a more recent one). I would suggest searching on Amazon for books by Jane Austen.

Jane Austen did not write a sequel but there are several by other authors:
Mrs. Darcy's Dilemma by Diana Birchall
Mr. Darcy Takes A Wife by Linda Berdoll
Conviction by Skylar Hamilton Burris
Pemberly by Emma Tennant and Eleanor Bron
Presumption by Julia Barrett
Mr. Darcy Presents His Bride by Helen Halstead
Trust And Triumph by Norma Gatje-Smith
Miss DeBourgh's Adventure by Joan Ellen Delman
I have not read any of these, so you'll have to look into them on your own.

No. Writers in those days seldom wrote sequels. Jane Austen did write many other books which you would enjoy if you liked Pride and Prejudice.

No, I do not believe there is. But if you liked Pride and Prejudice, I recommend that you read Emma (also by Jane Austen).

No she did not. But there are also movies of two other novels by Jane Austen "Emma" and "Sense & Sensibility"..I recommend reading the novels as well.
