Plot bunnies nibbling at me...a HP/Horatio Hornblower crossover. Regency Hogwarts. Napoleonic Europe. Snape in the uniform of His Majesty's Navy...although I think he'd be the French emigre spy myself. I think I have read entirely too much David Drake, Georgette Heyer, Jane Austen, David Weber, and C. S. Forester. I can't get much into Patrick O'Brian, as he does entirely too much technobabble for me to stay in the story. Weber commits similar errors, which is why I don't follow Honor Harrington much anymore. I love the characters in Weber, but he needs to remember the rule "show, don't tell."

I'm raving, aren't I? Better get myself off to bed.
