Dickensian and Victorianist. I also love the Flyers and New Wave music.
pinned post!
In my Bluesky life I'm reading Dickens or about Dickens on my veranda. In my other social media I'm Chrisocco5 or Chris M. Please join me. I don't post a lot, but I like to share interesting Dickens and/or Victorian information.
