I have a 1600 word essay to put together by early August, on a subject of my choosing but that must relate in some way warmaking and its society's mutual interaction.

I am squinting dubiously at the length requirement. Anyone got thoughts on a nice narrow topic they'd like to see me rant-with-sources about?

Similarly (and as always this is in no way meant to imply a command performance) anyone have a shortlist of sparks or story pieces they would like to see me expand considerably? I have a list of my own, of course, but external interest is always a plus. =)

hrm. could do a brief overview of the effects of the "surplus women" post WWI on various womens rights concerns.

I feel like this and Wild Roses could dovetail nicely into each other somewhere, but my brain has, predictably, gone blank in response to the question. Will revisit.

To the first I draw a blank; to the second, ooh yes, Roses! (trickwood for preference maybe? you want specific spark-responses hunting down?)

That's sort of where I'm sitting with the first, too.

(If you're up for hunting sparks, absolutely, but no pressure intended.)
