Quote

I just love historical fiction.

I like fiction and the kind of history that gives the grace and flavor of fiction to the past. No bloviation on current events, please. I can write that junk myself.

I've always been drawn to historical fiction.

I like going back and writing fiction.

I tend to like to read history - recent history, because I find that much more intriguing than just a writer's imagination.

I love historical fiction because there's a literal truth, and there's an emotional truth, and what the fiction writer tries to create is that emotional truth.

I'm not a great fiction reader. I love history. I love history and philosophy.

I'm a huge historical fiction and non-fiction fan.

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.

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.
