It made certain things easier as a vast gulf exists in between the two cultures. I do joke with people that I know two languages -- English and American.<BR/>But I do find when I am writing my historicals that it is much easier to write if I become immersed in the culture that I am writing about.

In school I was also into French, which I took as my language. Still can sing a rousing La Marseillaise but when I finally visited Paris (for just one day, unfortunately!) last year, I couldn't pick anything in spoken French. <BR/><BR/>Since I started writing, however, my Bronwyn Jamesonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00720477786460767921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36709846.post-42652522910789034032008-02-03T13:29:00.000-08:002008-02-03T13:29:00.000-08:00Great post,Katherine!I am not really passionate ab...Great post,Katherine!<BR/>I am not really passionate about anything either.Estellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04199693275287344161noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36709846.post-36997089547034218902008-02-03T09:44:00.000-08:002008-02-03T09:44:00.000-08:00Oh geez louise, I'm another British fan as well. ....Oh geez louise, I'm another British fan as well. . . it started when I was a kid and I was exposed to Sherlock Holmes (the Basil Rathbone variety) and A Christmas Carol -- and I dare say this woman who came on the world's stage when I was a couple years old named Princess Diana sure helped out a bit. :)<BR/><BR/>Nowadays, I'm a sucker for all things Regency and Jane. . . but I also still love theLoishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11105054210049682018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36709846.post-38816057503433201172008-02-02T22:29:00.000-08:002008-02-02T22:29:00.000-08:00Great post.
