Hello! I mostly contribute to random works that interest me for one reason or another. Currently these are most often prosaic books from the 18th century, but not exclusively. I'm still relatively new on here, so if I mess up, please tell me about it. It's appreciated. And if I can do anything for you at all, I'd be very happy to! Below is the list of works I've contributed to.
