short and sweet! :) historical dramas

[ehmmywrites]

Hi all!

I'm going to keep this pretty short and pretty specific! I have a hard knack for historical dramas right now. A little bit about me, I'm in my mid twenties, work two jobs, and write fully lit, novella-style in third person. Replies average 1200-2000 words or 5-12 paragraphs depending on the scene. This is very much a hobby for me, so please expect replies once a week to once every couple weeks, and occasionally every few days.

I am kink and smut friendly but plot and character focused; if you are wanting to write primarily smut I'm not your partner. I can write m// or m/f but I am a bit hesitant to write m/f with new partners so I'd prefer if we started with m// and developed into m/f down the road. I haven't written f// but I could be interested dependent on character chemistry. I also would prefer if you were comfortable playing masc and femme characters so we can have the opportunity to play both. I like to write over email or through a Discord server, but could do google docs if you're willing to show me how! More under the cut!



I am most interested in the following eras:

• 1800-1900
• 1900-1920s / ww1 
• interwar years / 20s-30s
• 1930-1950 / ww2, end of ww2
• 1980s-1990s
• modern settings / slice of life (kind of picky on this though)

I am really interested in the following themes or plot points:

• *** monarchy settings, particularly the British monarchy (as themes and elements, not on the people themselves)
• arranged marriages / social expectations and hierarchies 
• "high society"
• victorian gothic 
• tragedies / angst / hurt and comfort
• small town / countryside settings 
• old west / classic western tropes 
• true crime / crime noir / mafia, police, detective, investigator roles
• war, military imagery and ideology, separation and reintegration 
• for m// or f// - prejudice, identity struggles, complicated relationships, "beards" or marriages of pretense 
• friends-turned-lovers, enemies-turned-lovers, rivals-turned-lovers
• power dynamics, societal differences, status differences 

I am really inspired by the following media and would be interested in exploring them thematically or drawing elements into the story:

• *** Netflix's The Crown
• *** Downton Abbey
• Jane Eyre 
• Little Women
• Pride and Prejudice
• 1917
• Red Dead Redemption 1 & 2
