Laer Carroll asked Lois McMaster Bujold:

I am working on three books, #s 11, 12, & 13. This is usual for me; when energy/enthusiasm on one flags I've usually got one of the others to fall back on. Failing that I reread a favorite book, often one by this writer named Bujold, which always rejuvenates me. I'm finding elements of Lodi seeping into one of them. Does that sometimes happen to you (say of Heyer or Sayers) ?

Lois McMaster Bujold
Though I'm glad you continue to enjoy my books, I'm not sure what you are asking. Historical Venice, or indeed any historical place, is there for any writer to raid for inspiration.

Ta, L.
