I never though of doing that.<BR/>I have a really hard time with historical research so I can't even try to write a historical and I usually chose settings that I know, lucky for me I traveled a lot lol.<BR/>Congrats on your release!Marie-Claude Bourquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07949691504403910151noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13024760.post-63443478474787933622009-03-04T12:13:00.000-08:002009-03-04T12:13:00.000-08:00Therese & Kimber,I grew up with history.

In fact I'm in awe of someone who can write contemporaries.<BR/><BR/>AllisonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13024760.post-11061920474646597892009-03-04T10:34:00.000-08:002009-03-04T10:34:00.000-08:00Hi Allison!

I agree with you completely on how important location is, for everything else to be accurate.<BR/><BR/>There are just too many good books out there to tempt a reader/writer!! This one sounds like another I should add to the ever growing TBR pile!<BR/><BR/>Best wishes!<BR/><BR/>ThereseTheresehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12730726123190273016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13024760.post-65535071756844205402009-03-04T07:19:00.000-08:002009-03-04T07:19:00.000-08:00Being the type of gal who likes to touch and talk ...Being the type of gal who likes to touch and talk to her 'research', historical writers always amaze me.
