If you ever go ahead and write it. I will be sure to read.
Yesssssssssssssssss. That'd be amazing.
I want to encourage you to take that step. I too would love to read those stories. Would you like to write it with the same style you have brought to your previous works, or would you approach it with a clean slate, and a new tone? Please don't get me wrong, I love your writing. I was just thinking that that works from that era, and about that era have a different flow, and couldn't help but wonder what your writing would be like if you wrote it as if you were someone from that era, like Jane Austen, Mary Shelly, or Dorothy Wordsworth. However you go about it I will look forward to reading your books.
A thought occurred to me as I was about to press the comment button; an idea which you are free to use if any of it strikes you as interesting. I thought it might be interesting to see you tell a series of short stories presented as an anthology, written in the epistolary manner, with each story being the recollections of the author of the letter(s), with the whole being framed as a collection of letters written back and forth between a group of friends. Maybe set against the Napoleonic Wars, or whatever seems most interesting to you. Just a wild thought. I don't mean to be presumptuous.
