The Times discusses how things have changed when it comes to finding the right locations for films and period dramas.
Sam Goldwyn’s Wuthering Heights got no nearer Emily Brontë’s Haworth than Thousand Oaks Park, California — but then the mogul was famously indifferent to history. When the workings of a venerable sundial were explained to him, he exclaimed: “What will they think up next?” (Andrew Billen)

7 Thrushcross Grange is the home of the Linton family in which 1847 novel? (Olav Bjortomt)
Bleeding Cool features the work of cartoonist Tom Gauld, whose new book Revenge of the Librarians will be published in October.
Tom Gauld returns with his wittiest and most trenchant collection of literary cartoons to date. Perfectly composed drawings are punctuated with the artist's signature brand of humour, hitting high and low. After all, Gauld is just as comfortable taking jabs at Jane Eyre and Game of Thrones. (Rich Johnston)
Del Mar Times features local children's writer Chad Stewart, who
draws upon history and literary models such as Charles Dickens and the Brontë sisters as the inspirations for his fiction. That focus stems in large part from his studies in European history and British literature at Brown University and his journeys in England. (Michael J. Williams)
