Research - the easy way.
Jan. 27th, 2010 03:25 pmSo I'm trying to put together a story set in 1918 (but reflecting on WWI) in the world of St. Bride's. My knowledge of this era is minimal apart from reading lots of stuff written by soldiers of the time. Big on details/atmosphere, short on facts. So, where do I turn? To the redoubtable
rigby22 who, for a couple of quid, can send me answers to all sorts of key questions like 'When did Spanish flu first appear in Europe?' and 'Would Jonty and Orlando have been too old to sign up?'.
If anyone needs an easy source of reference on matters 1900-1945 or related to classical civilisations/literature, contact her agent. (Me.)
In other news, the anthology Encore, Encore is listed on the upcoming page at MLR. (April 2010.) My contribution is All That Jazz - me writing modern day stuff, who'd a thought it?
