Have you imagined that you could visit the places your favorite author has been and/or describes in their work? I can't go back to the 1800s but I can imagine and research that era. A time machine would help (smile)!
When I read Jack Kerouac's Dharma Bums and Big Sur, I researched the Oregon and Washington coastlines along with Big Sur in California. I Googled photos of these places and found them to be unchanged in some instances. I plan on visiting these places in the next year or so.
Where I live now I could write a story, poem or essay about a particular place, person, or event. When you actually live through a particular time in history, it makes the article that more thrilling.
