Hello and welcome to TheKnow Database Round-Up 23! Thank you so much to the people who have joined the group or submitted to the database since last time.

Also, the group has just had its first birthday. It’s still got a way to develop, but we’ve come a significant distance in that year. Thank you to everyone who joined TheKnow, who submitted scraps to the database, who requested information, who asked or answered questions and to those who watch the group, ready to spring into action and help!

I think we can all be pretty proud of ourselves.



Here is the latest submission to the database:

The Past

I lived a military coup when I was a child: luzmela lived through a military coup in Spain in 1981, when she was a child.

(Please see her scrap for her full and extensive statement.)



If this subject would be useful for your writing research, please contact the submitter directly by sending her a note. If you want to make a submission to the database yourself, the information is on our profile.



We take requests for information too. If you need someone else’s personal experience or knowledge as help with your writing research, and it isn’t in the database, leave a comment here. We’ll gather all the requests together and put them out in another journal, asking if anyone can help. Though if someone reading this journal sees a request in the comments they can help with, please feel free to contact the requester immediately.

You can make a request at any time—leave a comment on whatever is the current journal or on the group profile, or send us a note. It isn’t necessary to be a member or a watcher to make a request, but it would be lovely if you joined in.



If the database or requests system helps you in writing something, we would like to put the finished article in our favourites. So, if you post your piece on dA and would like it to feature in our collection, please send us a link! We’re thinking about featuring the stories in our journals too.



A note for anyone passing by: we understand some people may not want their details permanently on show in the database, but may feel comfortable talking to requesters privately via note. In that case, please consider watching TheKnow so you can keep an eye on the journals and what’s being looked for.
