A collection of old posts about Les Mis locations, mostly from me (the ones I was able to find)
Let me know if any of the links are broken, I already fixed one but there might be more (I collected these to a google doc years ago when the link formatting was different, and it was just for my own benefit because at the time I was vaguely planning to make an actual guidebook which I never ended up doing)
Sorry for how ugly this is, I'm too lazy to make these all into hyperlinks and all the notes are aimed at me so they might be weird. Also some of these posts are REALLY OLD and I can't guarantee they're all actually good tbh, my research methods early on were pretty messy and terrible and it took me literal years to find the most useful sources and the best approaches to finding the information I needed (half of which I've probably forgotten by now rip)
Honestly now I'm kinda tempted to clean a bunch of these posts up, or make new ones or something, but I know that realistically the hyperfixation is gone which means that I don't trust myself to have the motivation to actually do it. My legacy in this fandom is doomed to be just a bunch of incredibly messy and rambly posts with very little coherent organisation
I would recommend using these as just ways to find useful sources. Don't trust all the things I say because sometimes I'm just wrong
