Research The following links lead to a variety of works that I have done that don't really fit well elsewhere. For instance, I've done quite a lot of research on period paints, but since such articles fit clearly in categories like "Calligraphy & Illumination" or "Painting," they are generally not included here. The Nine-Days Queen: One of the early pieces of evidence that I was born to find a place in applied historical study and write all about it. This was my high school senior English paper, written when I was 17 years old. It won't surprise you that I got an "A" on the content. It was the first time I'd discovered the pleasure of the primary resource. It was also the first time I ran into how hard they can be to use. The paper is mostly as it was written in 1981, however, I used it as an article for the local newsletter in 1995 or so; at that time, I cleaned up the mechanical errors (I'd received a "D" on the mechanics; I did not grasp footnoting or spelling, alas!) and condensed it a bit. Amy Robsart, Lost and Never Found: As above, written as my Junior English paper, also impressive work for a kid in terms of content and full of appallingly bad mechanical errors. On Chronicles: Beginning research on Early Modern diaries, part of a project to create a persona diary. The CAMwiki contains some of the articles I used when the Rockwall Chronicler, many of which I silently edited or even revised. It seems to be wiser to put such things there, since freely distributed articles undergoing cooperative editing is the prime function of a wiki. Questions, comments, suggestions, thoughts?
