I needed it. :o)<br /><br />Donna: I hope I didn't overstep myself. I like to recommend your blog to others when I get the chance. I didn't actually intend to do the same subject as you--in fact, I try to do different topics entirely. Alas, reticules are so much a part of the Regency genre that I figured I should at least mention them. I mentioned the cravat, after all, in a previous post.<br /><br />I don't think Alicia's reticule was important, other than to set the scene, so to speak. I never noticed that you failed to mention it again. I definitely know what you mean, though. I think I've done the same thing in my books.

Thanks for the recommendation!!!<br /><br />My problem with reticules is that they seem to magically appear and disappear in my books. In "The Stranger She Married," Alicia had a reticule in one scene but I never mentioned it later. Sigh. I guess we could assume she had it on her wrist the rest of the time.Donna Hatchhttp://www.donnahatch.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8798013223939337189.post-28924416540630472592009-11-13T16:27:12.715-05:002009-11-13T16:27:12.715-05:00Fascinating -- do you know this is the first time ...Fascinating -- do you know this is the first time I've run across the word "reticule?" <br /><br />You're kicking butt on NaNo!
