User blog comment:MeltingLizard/Simple, useful tip for use in writing pastas(or anything else, really)/@comment-26030957-20150707233358/@comment-26030957-20150708165259

Yes, writing in an antiquated style can be quite challenging, because you don't want to bore your readers or weigh the prose down too much with outdated speech. I'm going through it right now, for the story I am writing for Banning's Demon Contest is in epistolary form and takes place in 1861.

If you want to see a pasta that I believe really works using an antiquated type prose, check out Shadow Swimmer's The Wicker House. Also, there's my Nightingale which takes place in 1910.
