I would if I could, but I'm (a) too young, (and is it me, or have they changed the age restriction from 17 to 18 recently? I could have sworn I'd be able to participate next year, but apparently I won't be able to until next year) and (b) too prone to being distracted by the pretty, pretty family trees. (I am unable to write anything without mapping out the generations three generations each way)

By the by, have you ever read Catriona McPherson's Dandy Gilver series? Its a series of mysteries set in 1920s Scotland, and starring an unromantic, married, detective who is in her late thirties. There are lots of lovely clothes, a handsome co-solver with whom she has a mild flirtation, and some thoroughly intriguing mysteries.
