We have a great course in Writing Historical Fiction coming up here at City Lit on the 12th and 13th of July taught by the well regarded author Hilary Green.
Lori Baker's novel, The Glass Ocean, set in Victorian England, will be the subject of a LitChat at 4 pm EST on Wednesday, 3 September. The conversation can be followed via: www.nurph.com/litchat or by becoming a follower of Lori Baker through Twitter: lori1baker1 -- for moe details, see http://litchat.com/coming-up-in-litchat/
John Banville wrote: "The Glass Ocean is that rarest of things, a historical novel, or at least a novel set in history, that is also a work of art. Lori Baker is a captivating story-teller, and her prose has the flash and fire of molten glass."

Hello, My name if Kitty Sutton and I am the author of a series of three books. The series is called, Mysteries From the Trail of Tears. The third in the series is about to be released in November. The books are Native American Historical Fiction Mysteries and cover Indian Territory just after the Trail of Tears. How may I be placed on your list of books to be reviewed? Thanks Kitty Sutton
I am very intruigued by your interesting weblog ''Passages to the Past'', which I discovered on the site of author Susan Higginbotham ´´History Refreshed´´

Therefore, out of appreciation I send to you my article about the Wars of Roses, about Margaret of Anjou, who is, to my opinion, too negatively imaged during the centuries. Not saying she is a saint (actually she was hard and uncompromising and could be cruel and merciless), and I´ll not justify her cruel deeds at all, but her acts were no worse and cruel than of the ´´men in her life´´ involved. But often she was not judged on her political deeds, but her gender.
So I wrote THE WARS OF THE ROSES/MARGARET OF ANJOU, SHE WOLF OR NOT
THE WARS OF THE ROSES/CLAIMS TO THE ENGLISH THRONE
I found Richard, Duke of York, the great adversary of Margaret of Anjou, a very intruiging major also, as the various Lancaster/York (actually Mortimer, from the Duke´s mother side, Anne Mortimer) claims to the throne

I wanted to let you know about our Virtual Historical Festival which is kicking off on Monday, it is going to feature loads of competitions, author interviews and social media interaction.
It would be great if you could maybe post about the Festival on social media. The timetable for the festival is online too. You might be interested in chatting to the authors when they are online.
I hope you are having a good start to the week? As you may already be aware, next February sees Simon Parke launch his fantastic new historical fiction title, The Soldier, the Gaoler, the Spy and Her Lover (16 February, 2017).
Simon would love the opportunity to speak to your readers about his experience in bringing this true historical account to life, in particular the life of Charles I’s spy and mistress Jane Whorwood, who has been all but written out of history until now. Why have the women who shaped our past been written out of history? And, entering a year in which the majority of America trusts Trump over Clinton, has our political patriarchy really changed that much? As Monday 30 January marks the anniversary of the King’s death, can looking back provide us with a better perspective on the political landscape moving forward?
I would be delighted to send you advance proofs your way if you think this is something you would be interested in?
Many thanks and best wishes,
