erastesJust because I give links to a discussion or think something is an interesting subject that people might be interested in it doesn’t mean that it’s All About Anyone In Particular. It’s not some kind of logic game where I say a. This person is writing about x which I think is interesting, and anyone who disagrees with it is WRONG. M’ok?
As an additional point - Gehayi often points this out - it seems to me to be only ROMANCE that gets away with this level of inaccuracy. Somehow because its Romance, it doesn't matter.
However were you to do an historical MYSTERY or an historical HORROR you would have a legion of fans picking holes in your accuracy:
“You didn’t get that gun until 2 years later.”
“Rifling wasn’t invented until 18….”
“The Met didn’t incorporate fingerprinting until ….”
See what I mean??? This is why I get baffled.
Dollshouse is getting very good. Sorry for those who don’t like it, (this doens’t mean I hate you lot, either) but I’m enjoying it hugely. Yes, it’s creepy. That’s the idea.
