Calling historical fiction team: Abi C., Inktail, Booksy owly, and me, Dandelion

We can post ideas and stuff here and find a good topic, have discussions, and share stories etc...

I had 2 ideas: we don't have to use them, but here they are)

- We could write about a girl or boy traveling west in the 1850s or 60s, about the struggles and hardships of leaving home, and on the way. It could be a really cool story.

- About a girl in a factory during the Industrial Revolution, and the challenges there were during that time period.

 

What do you guys think??

Awesome!

I'd really like to do something from the Revolutionary or Civil War, since I know a lot about them. If we do the latter, then we could incorporate your second idea, since factories were beginning to be a big thing in the North.

By the way, sorry Dandelion, I didn't realize you had created a thread. I'll bottom mine when it comes up. Don't post on it, people! ;)

Layout ideas:

 

Civil War RP! (We need a better title xD)

You are playing a young child at the time of the Civil War, working in a factory. Your hours are long, your payment is little and your hunger grows and grows. Will you get a second job, to cover costs for your family? Or will you not survive the period, as many others have not? We shall see...

 

Rules-

(I guess we need to decide some, huh?)

Maybe we could expand it so it's not just the factory? Like, different characters doing different things related to the war?

Yeah, I would agree. The civil war had so many things happening, and factories were one of them but not everything.
