I'm kinda in the same boat, OP. My love for Sparrington has recently been rekindled, and as a consequence of reading a lot of fic and watching the movies over again, I've had a lot of plot bunnies that I've been writing down. I'm not sure I'll be able to turn any of them into worthwhile stories, however, partly because I know so little about that time period.

I've picked up the Aubrey/Maturin series in the hopes it might give me at least a bit of knowledge. It's always very daunting when trying to write anything historical, for me at least.

Also, can I ask what exactly ARE the Age of Sail fandoms? Is PotC included in there, or am I completely off-base here?

I'd include the Aubrey/Maturin series in that category. Also Horatio Hornblower and maybe Naomi Novik's work, sort of?

Fellow PotC fan here (always loved Jack, have a new love for Norrie)!

In the last AoS talk here, I think it's on the border lands, so to speak (you should check out Black Sails, it's far less romantic than PotC). PotC is more Golden Age of Piracy, AoS is more...War of 1812? Horatio Hornblower comes to mind.

While I'm not into slash, I would be happy to help fact check/do some reading in regards to piracy.
