Mega Victorian Meta part 1
Apr. 7th, 2009 06:45 pmOr why I set my legacy during the years 1837-1901.
(Alright strictly speaking that should be 1865-1901 since I'm not referencing the earlier part of the period, but hey).
The secret about me, my legacy and PB this week over at![[info]](https://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/community.gif)
simsecret got me thinking, mainly because the secretmaker's stupid was showing with regards to their perception of both the era and me. All of you who have spoken to me about the era know that I am fascinated by it and the people, but I have never really put down or said why I find it fascinating. I'm about to remedy that.
My original idea was to do one meta on the subject, but as I was writing it, it became apparent that I have far too much to say if I want to talk about what was happening, why if fascinates me and how it relates to what I do in my legacy. With that in mind, you are going to get a whole series of them, each one looking at just one theme. The posts will be kinda a cross between my thoughts and a full reply to the secret. Take from them what you want, oh and I warn you that they will more than likely become flaily at some point as I get caught up in my enthusiasm for the subject.
( LOTS of talk about Victorians )
I think that I'll leave this here for now: I've already written enough. As I say I will be writing more of these, but I have an overdue out-takes post and some comments to catch up with. I also have some playing to do, so the next one might not be up for a bit. I hope that you enjoyed me going on though and that it has given you a bit more insight into the sort of things I think about when writing my legacy.
