My process starts with deep research, diving into historical events, social customs, and the lives of people who lived in the past. Whether it’s the turbulent courts of ancient monarchs, the struggles of ordinary people in times of war, or the quiet moments of daily life, I aim to capture the essence of the time period. Once I’ve gathered the facts, I shape the story around these real events, often creating fictional characters whose experiences reflect the spirit of the era.

Research is at the heart of my writing process. I dive deep into historical texts, letters, and archives to ensure authenticity in my stories. Understanding the cultural, social, and political contexts of the periods I write about is crucial. I aim to paint a vivid picture of the settings, using rich descriptions to immerse readers in the sights, sounds, and feelings of the time. By blending facts with fiction, I strive to create characters that resonate with modern readers while staying true to their historical roots.

Setting plays a vital role in my storytelling. I often choose historical events or periods that resonate with me, allowing the backdrop to influence the characters’ journeys. For instance, writing about the tumultuous years of the French Revolution provides a dramatic context for exploring themes of freedom, power, and sacrifice. By immersing readers in the sights, sounds, and emotions of the past, I hope to evoke a sense of connection to those who lived through those times.

Creating believable characters is at the heart of historical fiction. While some characters may be based on real historical figures, others are entirely fictional. Regardless, each character must feel authentic to the period, reflecting the values, beliefs, and challenges of the time. Historical novelists craft characters who are deeply human, grappling with issues that resonate with contemporary readers while remaining true to the historical context.

Dialogue and description are key components of my writing. I pay close attention to the language and mannerisms of the period, ensuring that my characters' speech and actions are consistent with the time in which they live. The settings are described in vivid detail, transporting readers to historical locations and immersing them in the sights, sounds, and atmosphere of the past.
