I just spent more than an hour doing research online. What's worse, I think I'm actually going to have to go to the library and take out a book or two.

You have to understand, I'm not in school, and when I'm not in school, I don't do research. It's very simple.

So, how do all you lovely people who write historical AUs manage it without going crazy?

I've barely even started the thing, and it's already eating my brain. Heaven help us.

Ugh. College. Don't even remind me how much actual research I'll be doing in a month. (I've decided that it doesn't count as research if you're actually interested in it. ::nods primly::

Anarchists in 1901 Cleveland/Buffalo, thus effectively combining two of my eccentric history!obsessions: Emma Goldman (leading anarchist of her day) and presidential assassinations (President McKinley was shot and killed by an anarchist in 1901).

Ahahaha randomness and obscurity in historical AU form! And Billeh, who unexpectedly switched places with Dom two pages in and decided to be the main character. Meh?

Six pages and barely even started. Send help.

Oooh. Border war. Coolness. Billeh vs. Dom (or Orli?), sounds excellent...
