hey just a wee thing if you’re an aspiring creator of historical fiction like moi
if you’ve ever sat down to write your story and thought ‘ok but what is the historical backdrop for these characters on this particular month, or this day, in this country, in this city’
the british newspaper archive [link] has literally millions of archived newspaper pages going all the way back to the 1700s
so if you’re like me and thinking ‘ok but what was going on in edinburgh in may 1914??’ this archive has got you covered, pal
