I've been thinking about the format of the Jeeves and Wooster fanfics recently. This particular fandom has the extrodinarly lovely habit to write fanfics almost identicaly in the style of the books, which is that the series is presented as Bertram Wooster's memiors from about a ten year streach, even though I'm not thinking about the exact dates at the moment.

Anyway, even though it's thought that Bertie started writing some of the memiors during this time - a charecter that is "never seen again" returns and marries Aunt Agatha, I belive - would it be compltely insane to think that while Bertie is an extremely prolific memorist, he was also a diarist? Having Bertie being a diarist would have the advantage of Berite being able to reconstruct dialouge said several years previous without having him to remember all of it. This would, to me at least, have Bertie to be more in charecter as his dialouge seems well put together, but his recolections of poetry and more relevant to the sound rememberance, songs, not as steerling.

Mostly thought of when fiddling with a bunny crossing Wodehouse!Reality with Acutal!Reality, as I would doubt that Bertie would record what would happen in the story in his memoirs, but a diary would make sense.

Though Bertie as blogger is my favortie crack idea in this fandom so far. = )
