This is of course very true. It's why I gave up the respectability* of writing original fiction and started writing fanfic again despite swearing off it**. (Apparently what I most want to write about one of the paragons of modern naval literature pining for his best friend. Go figure that one out.)
Excellent! I love research, which is probably why I enjoy writing historical fiction. I'm enjoying what you're learning from it -- I tried that First Sunday trick today with mixed results (mostly due to my mental long division skills not being as sharp as they once were.)
(Haha, the only secret I am truly hiding is that I am a young whippersnapper!)
*or at least I TOLD myself it was more respectable **but then I learned to have fun
