I write fiction (as opposed to non-fiction) but my Victorian novels are about women in 1870s London who work toward autonomy and self-authorization in the fields of music and art (as opposed to medicine). Often when I give author talks, people will ask, “But could a woman really study piano at the Royal Academy? Could she really study at an art school?” Yes, in the 1870s real Victorian women were doing these things, but the women were, admittedly, outliers. I’m always interested in Victorian women pushing up against boundaries and norms. I’ll check out your book!
