Hi I'm Heather. I've been reading here for a while and decided to start replying where I can so I wanted to introduce myself. I've written two historical romace novels and a series of picture books for children that I wrote for my niece. Lots of great advice and info here.

Behind you!
It's a pleasure to welcome you, Heather. Here, have some chocolate before Susie finds out I'm giving it away.

Maryn, knowing you'll meet Susie

Hi Heather. What period of history? And do you illustrate your own work? I write YA historical fiction set in mid fourteenth century. I'm also putting together a number of stories I wrote for my granddaughter. I'm thinking of a chapter book.

Anyway, welcome and enjoy AW.

Hi

One of the romace novels is set in the 1700's and the other is set in the 1300's. I've written a short historical fiction set during WW2 as well. I don't illustrate the children's books I have to admit to being an awful artist. Good luck with your books

I find the 1300's really interesting - that's when my books are set. I've bought books giving translations of documents from those days - the Pastern Letters and the Wynkin de Word's lectures on manners to young lords. So I hope you enjoy writing in that era as much as I do.

Best wishes.

I'm fascinated. I've never written a children's book, but my daughter is trying one, so I'm interested. Welcome!
