Letitia Elizabeth Landon (L.E.L.): Poetic Genius as a Girl
I really liked Mrs Rowden too! I should have pulled her out and given her an article of her own.
I've been reading L's poems, and biographies, and critiques, and blah blah insertions about what it all meant, all day. I've barely written a ...

I was almost more interested in Mrs Rowden here. Really kick-ass woman, I think.

Yay! Then that means that my work here is well and truly done. And the second part will be coming when I've finished researching it (and getting much side-tracked into interesting detours).

I see :) You certainly work your magic on your research. It entices me to read things outside my radar, which is a great thing.
Finished reading this one. Looking forward to Part II.

I did that once with an Irish article and it looked so very messy. Besides, I'm not writing it as an academic piece per se, at least not any more than I'm naturally inclined to do after all that training!

After the Boston Tea Party: Herbal Liberty Teas Suggested by Philo Aletheias on January 13, 1774

Thanks for the pin Ologsinquito.
Thank you for reading Mira.
