Last year deathsblood nominated and requested Poniatowski, which at the time none of us were equipped to write. This year you have read his memoirs and summarized them for us, and I could probably read them too if necessary.
I'd like to mention to them that we'd be more equipped this year to write something if they nominated Poniatowski again (they seem to request him pretty consistently), but I don't want to do this if there's no chance that anyone will write anything. (I think this mainly means selenak, since you've read the memoirs and you write quickly -- I should be able to read them, but the chance I can write anything in a historical fandom this year is kind of small given my time constraints and slow writing speed, but I could maybe pull off something short if I had substantial beta help :) And I guess the good thing about me writing something is that I would be less stressed about getting everything historically correct since I don't know what the correct things are :PP ) I do want to strongly encourage other people to hang out in our fandom, though! :D
(I would also read the heck out of a Poniatowski fic, he is hilarious!)
I feel up to Poniatowski as a supporting character, though not necessarily as a main character. Mind you, that may change! (BTW, Mildred, he has a chapter of his own in Horowitz, titled "Poniatowski keeps his locks".) In any event, deathsblood should nominate him, by all means.
OK! Maybe I won't say anything specifically to deathsblood -- but they will be able to see it in the nomination spreadsheet, and they'll also know we're nominating Catherine. :)

Oh, good! Horowski (at least in part--I'm not committing to reading cover-to-cover) is on my list, either after or concurrently with Lehndorff (who in turns comes after the remaining Wilhelmine material and the very short Krockow volume on Heinrich and Fritz).
