Research and Writing – I’ve been involved with one or the other for most of my business career; however, upon transitioning into a second career, research, and plenty of it, and the love of history and creating a story based upon true events has led to writing two historical fiction novels. Fiction doesn’t mean the details in the story created by the writer didn’t happen. So – what is the responsibility of a historical fiction writer? For me – I do what the historian does – I read, review, and evaluate the known facts about the topic I wish to create a story about. And then I take another step. In each of my two historical fiction novels, I do a lot of digging by searching with the hope of unearthing additional details. Often, they are details that heretofore have not been discovered by other researchers, and they are significant finds that either add to or may change the actual history of the story. I take my research and writing seriously, because it’s my responsibility and my goal to take the reader back in time, and by doing so, lead them forward by making them feel and think they are part of history and the events about to unfold.
