Post by: dvlvan26 on December 13, 2006, 03:02:18 PM

Hello to All Cousins!

Picture any of the characters writing love letters and poetry and type up the material any of them would write.

I don't think we're supposed to do this, that would be considered 'fan fiction' wouldn't it?   [santa_huh]

You can certainly say so and so would write love letters and/or poems to so and so, and you can describe what they might be like (mushy, erotic, saccharine, etc.) - but just so long as you don't give actual examples of the letters and/or poems.  [santa_smiley]

I think a love letter from Barnabas would be quite eloquent with nods to mythology and the classics.

P.S.  Here is what I hope is an example of that, but you have to scroll to the end of the chapter to get to the letter:

When Kitty dreamt she was Josette she found a book of poems by Robert Burns and started quoting from it.

This doesn't quite fit the topic, but I think it's nice to come up with the poems/and or songs that were used within the show.
