Workshop: Writing an Historical Novel Series with Anne Gracie
1 July 2023 | 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
In this workshop Anne Gracie will share her knowledge about the difference writing in a series made to her career. We’ll discuss the appeal of some historical series and why readers like them. We will explore the features of various kinds of historical novel series and what might link a series — characters, themes, historical events, location, or all of the above. We’ll look at some of the features that make a series successful, and finally we’ll look at how to set yourself up to write a series.
This workshop will not be recorded.
