      @seekjustice Would it be weird for that time period for them to get married when she is 20 and he 24?? I know nowa days it’d be fine but folks married young then.
      What is NaNo?? 🙂

        @salome01w4g Was her fiancé sent to England or where she was before (leading to a mix-up)?

        @seekjustice
        No I haven’t. Maybe I should consider it…

He is sent to break the news and since he’s her only other male “guardian” brings her back. It’s revolutionary war period

                @salome01w4g this is the revolution war story isn’t it? No, I don’t think it would be weird. Back then there were often much larger gaps in marriages. like, we’d think it would be weird for a forty year old to marry a teen now, but then it was quite often done (I think anyway. the revolution took place in the 1700s, didn’t it? I’m not sure).
                NaNoWriMo is basically a crazy challenge in which writers consume a lot of coffee, chocolate and energy drinks and try to write a fifty-thousand word novel in the month of November.

                  @catwing I’ve always wanted to try it and I did the camps earlier this year, so I’ve decided to give it a go this year. I’m currently planning the novel I want to write.

                    @catwing and @seekjustice
                    oooohhhhh I might try that….. hmmmmm…..

                    Yes 1700’s. I’m mostly concerned because a 20 yr old would likely be considered a spinster.

                          @catwing @salome01w4g urgh, I actually hate coffee. and tea too. I have to keep myself going on chocolate.
                          and yes, being a spinster. I actually wasn’t thinking of that. could you make them a bit younger? otherwise, I wouldn’t worry too much about, I don’t think.
