Ooooh! *is fascinated* I would love to know...well, pretty much everything about your experience. Do tell!

BTW, everything I've written since last Wednesday is longhand, so I have NO CLUE what my word count is. It's actually quite liberating. ;)

Most of my experience was relegated to wearing hazard suits and putting other peoples' ruined possessions into trashbags. It was pretty depressing. I also used a lot of hammers and shovels. I don't know if that is relevant to your research. I do have more details if you are interested.

Ah, crap, here I was thinking of gutting as "ooh, the first step toward fixing things!" I didn't even think about all the stuff left behind. Christ, that would be depressing.

I do have plenty of questions, if you're willing to share. (God, I feel like kind of a douche, an information vulture. Really, I hope you don't mind.) You didn't say specifically, but were you in New Orleans proper? One neighborhood in particular? And when? And what businesses and services were up and running at that point? (I've driven myself crazy trying to put together timelines...)

Man, I could probably think of more, but I'm already bugging you enough. And really, I've probably over-researched already, but I'm super paranoid about getting everything right for this fic, or at least not wrong. Seriously, I spent an hour with my therapist a few weeks ago, angsting and weeping about the whole thing. What right do I have, as an outsider who wasn't there, to appropriate this tragedy for something as trivial as fanfic? If I weren't writing from ( ... )
