Oh wait! 3pm! THAT, I can do, though I might be a tad late changing attire from teaching to rp. Very cool.

This may be an opportunity for the older Fanny Burney (by then, Mdm. D'Arblay) to make an appearance. Unfortunately, I cannot make 2pm Thursday events because I teach a writing class on Book Island. Hopefully, I'll be able to make one of the other gatherings.

I have gone ahead and formed a group inworld and here on Ning called The Royal Retreat. Please sign up here and inworld to be kept abreast of events and plans for this rp. I am so glad people are interested.

Country Residence of George III (RP venue)

Communty News & Events

In RL I am an author, poet and playwright. Recently, I have been researching the Georgian period in general and the life of Frances Burney in particular. I have now decided that I will be writing a play based on this research. The particulars of the play and its plot are still up for internal debate and will be for some time to come.

In the meantime, I would like to set up an rp venue for the court of George III, 1786-91. This is the period of an assassination attempt, the king's "madness," and many trips of the court to resorts of various types. I will be Frances Burney in this RP, but hope there are others with an interest in participating.

There are many, many books about the period that can help with fleshing out characters and with developing the setting and rp. If you are interested in participating, please say so here or IM me in SL (Freda Frostbite, there), so that I can add you to the group I am forming for this project. Thanks all!

French royal court?

General Discussion

I recently joined

The Sanssouci Gardens RP

because they seem to be fairly active. I have only participated in one event there thus far, but see they have something scheduled for tomorrow. My own character is not French, but English. Those court folk got around, so it works.

Very likely. Gives me a chance to learn more about Burney after she became Mdm. D'Arblay. I do not think that period of Fanny's life will be covered in my writing project, but it's always good to know more about a subject than what you actually plan to write. Besides, this will be fun! Old ladies can get away with a lot more!

I have begun the search for a homestead to purchase for this rp. So if you know of a homestead for sale at a reasonable price (To my mind, anything higher than the cost of tier and the fee for moving and renaming is too high.), please let me know. This land can be currently located anywhere, named anything, terraformed any old way because all of that can and will be changed. Contact me through this group or IM Freda Frostbite inworld.

Thanks!

Jacon Cortes (the prince?) was kind enough to show me some of antiquity yesterday including Buckingham Palace under construction. I was very much impressed with what I saw there. It seems to me that for rp purposes some mixing of eras is likely to happen, though I am loathe to represent my own character out of context. I will be watching with interest as the palace is completed and the court of George IV assembled. My own RP character (the real life author, Frances Burney) was still alive and writing during the reigns of George IV and William IV. It is possible that she might be about.

I will do so when next I am traveling. That is likely to be quite soon. Thank you, sir.

LOL! I am actually wandering the sims of Antiquity as we speak! I am really looking for the court of George III because Frances Burney, the rl author I portray in rp, served in that court.
