Something that seems like it would help is something you've recommended, which is reading literature from the time period, not just ABOUT the time period.<br /><br />Jeannie, I'm SO glad you've given writers a great resource.

An 18th century lady isn't going to think, act, or speak like a 21st century one. Yet a lot of novelists try to take their own ideas of what an independent woman should be and then just plop said woman into history. It never rings true and can seriously mess with plot.Roseanna Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02245767775900250399noreply@blogger.com
