Writing historical fiction: History, legend and the art of storytelling with Barrie Doyle

You want your work to be enjoyed. More than that, believable. Easy enough if you’re writing about modern times, but what if your story is set in the past? We’ll look at techniques and tips for digging into the past to make your stories come alive. Where do you find out what food a medieval monk ate or what an Egyptian Pharaoh wore to bed, and how do you make it real to your readers? You never know what you’ll learn when you delve into history.

Registration for this program will begin September 20.
