sharpiepen. I post fannish stuff as public entries, but they are few and far between.If you want to read my random ramblings, please leave a comment to this entry. I'm generally pretty cool about adding people, but I do prefer that we have some interests in common.

I followed your directions and was done within 2 minutes. Yay! I'm really excited somehow. A shiny new journal! :D
Thanks for the help. *hugs*

Date: 2010-09-28 02:09 am (UTC)I'd love to be added to your DW circle. I'm a huge fan of Sharpe, Aubrey & Maturin, and Hornblower, in both their book and dramatic forms.

Date: 2015-12-12 07:58 pm (UTC)I was looking for a ds9 community, and before I filtered my search results to communities, I saw your journal icon and just had to click it. Those uniforms.. Why do they have to be so attractive? <3
Anyway, it's super neat that you do re-enactments! I've always kind of wanted to, but I never saw any that had women being soldiers, so, being female, I never bothered. (too many commas? heh) So cool!

Date: 2017-04-17 03:23 pm (UTC)We have birthday month in common and I spent a lot of school hols in Horton Kirby, which is down in Kent too.
When I was in Uni (in Hudds) I was in 15th C re-enactment,(mostly Wars of the Roses, and belonged to the Clarence Household, part of the Federation of the Wars (but a long time ago now I'm not young anymore and I don't live in the UK anymore either). Quite a lot different to the Napoleonic but fun nevertheless.
... and I love Sharpe, both the books and the series. Admittedly Sean Bean playing Sharpe is always a draw of course.
I love a lot of Brit tv, although none of this is reflected much in my profile. I probably don't think of these as fandoms because Brit tv is like home and not fandom. ^_^
I'm ok with browsing your fannish stuff, but was wondering if we could eventually be friends.
I'm not a bot and mmestrange can vouch that I am in fact a real person.
... and uh ... I reall *AM* Zan, I'm not really that imaginative with names.
Sorry for the interrupt,

Date: 2018-10-04 11:17 am (UTC)I much prefer the LJ style of journaling and communities to... whatever else is on offer elsewhere. And feel safer with the pseudonymous style of LJ/DW than plastering my RL name all over the internet.

Date: 2019-01-18 01:52 am (UTC)Age of Sail can be such a strangely-defined era, as well: I find myself often using it just as another way to refer to the Napoleonic Wars, though that's clearly much too limiting. Once you start opening it up, though, suddenly you have a 250-year or so chunk of time on your hands, which I imagine gets unwieldy.
no subject
Date: 2019-02-01 11:01 am (UTC)As for the AoS getting unwieldy, no, not really, when you consider that it's really only the 18th and early nineteenth centuries that get much screentime - and only really the second half of the eighteenth century, at that. I think things like Versailles (Louis IVth, the Sun King) are much too early, and things like Penny Dreadful are much too late! So it's really not much more than 100 years of time I have to deal with, and not even that, in practise.
