I could write historical fiction, or science fiction, or a mystery but since I find it fascinating to research the clues of some little know period and develop a story based on that, I will probably continue to do it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think any period in history can be adapted into interesting fiction, as long as you approach the actual history with respect.
Maybe I will write a memoir, perhaps I'll do some essays, or maybe I will write a mystery story.
I like writing historical fiction.
To make it interesting and worth doing, writing a novel has to be a leap into the unknown. I have to be unsure if I can write it; otherwise, I won't want to.
I like to do the research of history and the creativity of writing fiction. I am creating this thing which I think is twice as difficult as writing either history or fiction.
I'm such a history-nerd that, with time for research, I could probably enjoy writing in just about any time period.
I would love to write a mystery - a romantic, funny mystery.
I spent the first twenty years of my writing career preparing for the mystery genre, which is my favorite literary form.
It's interesting because I haven't done a lot of period work in the past, but I always wanted to because I'm interested in history.
Obviously, I love to do both contemporary and historical fiction. When a hint of a story grabs me, I try to go with it to see where it will take me whatever the setting.
