I've had a lovely time this evening working on what's turning out to be a novelette or novella. (Projected length: 15k words.)
The plot involves Bertie Wooster and Jeeves accidentally traveling in time and meeting the Buddha. It's fun to write, although creating something that can pass for Wodehouse's style is challenging. The man was a fiendishly clever stylist.
The best part is the research: reading tons of Wodehouse.

Almost all of the Fry & Laurie “Jeeves & Wooster” is available on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLHxC5fTU2oVbTLQ7WayDiYlnlHPjuOk6Z
The “Tuppy and the Terrier” episode nearly killed me by asphyxiation when it aired on PBS in the ‘90s because I was laughing so hard.

Ok so I wasn't the only one who never questioned #HughLaurie's American accent on #HouseMD lol, from reading the comments. I only knew he was British much later, specifically from watching BTS vids from after they had wrapped up the show. Since then, it feels so weird watching him in a British accent like in #JeevesAndWooster.
Side note: it's so sad to see him look rather old now :'))

Do we have any other PG Wodehouse fans on @bookstodon? I love his work, it’s so funny and cheeky and joyful all at once, and was the perfect prescription for anyone feeling down during the pandemic.
My favourite book of his is The Code of the Woosters, one of the Jeeves and Wooster series. There’s something marvellous about the intricate, interconnected plot elements - there’s a bundle of things going on at once, including various complicated relationships, jealousy, a compromising notebook, misunderstandings over the accidental ‘theft’ of an umbrella, and the actually planned theft of an ugly silver cow creamer.
On top of that, Wodehouse was unusually political by throwing into this 1938 novel a hilarious character based on the fascist movements of the era: Roderick Spode, a ‘human gorilla’ who leads a group of wannabe fascists called the Black Shorts. It’s great stuff.
In the course of enjoying Wodehouse’s work I’ve met many Wodehouse fans around the world. When I visited Tokyo a few years ago I was delighted to be presented with a copy of The Code of the Woosters in Japanese by Tamaki Morimura (see the photo below), who translates PGW’s books into that language. When it came to public notice that the previous Empress of Japan was a great Wodehouse reader, her translations had a big bump in sales! Much deserved.
