Building Your Craft
( 3 items )
I have been a writer, poet, and researcher for nearly all of my adult life. I have located criminals, learned that a ‘high-born’ heroine was once a prostitute, and traced many lives through wars, occupations, corruption, and malice. I plan my searches through court houses, archives, and libraries with the same enthusiasm and care as a robber casing a bank. I also love to interview those who once knew my characters, finding their personal stories to be a fascinating addition to history.
