Q: What do you hope to accomplish with your blog? Is it to one day become an author yourself, just for fun, maybe get some online attention, or maybe something very different?
A: I am a writer that writes across three different genres: scifi/fantasy, historical fiction, and crime drama. As you might imagine, history is one of my passions. I'm especially fond of anything dealing with the medieval period. Even minored in history in college! My first historical fiction, entitled Citadels of Fire, is about a maid working in the Kremlin palace during the reign of Ivan the Terrible. It's the first book of a trilogy and has elements of romance, mystery, and of course political/sexual drama (imperial court and all). :D Click HERE to read the press release from Jolly Fish Press.
So, this blog is to spread my neuroses knowledge about history, indulge my need to geek out about it, and eventually promote my book (release date September 2013).
What about you? What's YOUR blog's purpose?
Hi Liesel! New follower here too!
ReplyDeleteI love history so much! It's one of my passions. I hope to write more about it. I'm working on the prequel to a story, and it begins in 17th century France, with Cardinal Richelieu!
Best of luck to you, have a great weekend!

ReplyDeleteThanks so much! Have a great weekend!
DeleteYou've gotta love a good geek-out! I don't know if I have the attention span for historical novels. I do love me some Celtic and Greek mythology though, so maybe I'd surprise myself! If there's romance and or sex scenes, I'm sold! Crude, I know, but we all have our vices when it comes to reading!
