For History Buffs

I have a forum that I put together myself for history in general, not necessarily about historical fiction. Feel free to join and share your passion with others.

Digging Through Time

Great forum idea, Rowan! I've joined - aargh! another seduction good for hours of fascinating entertainment. Now what activities do I give up? Vacuuming and dusting went long ago.

LOL, probably the only advantage to being crippled up and using a walker is my lovely excuse for not being able to dust, vacuum, mop the floors. More reading time

Thanks for joining Margaret.

I recently subscribed to several newsletters from About.com for various history sub-topics and have been adding content through that.

I'm in - thanks, Rowan. Seriously, as soon as I saw Spanish moss hanging in the trees on the home page picture, I was clicking on register.

I love that gray stuff - I keep meaning to fill up some bags with it when I'm visiting family down on the SC coast so I can bring it up here in the high foothills and then hang it in the mountain laurel. Just doesn't seem like home without moss hanging around.

You want moss... we GOT moss...

Thanks for joining guys. Please note that I have to approve all memberships because I've already had idiots join and put porn up.

So if you don't have access right away, it's because I don't know you've registered, yet, but I keep my email open all day.

I just registered for your history site...I love history - I guess I'd call myself an anglophile - I love british history, especially the Plantagenet era and the Tudor era...Haven't had a chance to peruse, but will most definitely...thanks!

As of March 31, 2009 I'm closing this forum. Thanks for taking the time to at least join, but things are clear to me now that it was not meant to be.
