Thanks, I had fun writing it. What’s your novel about?

I too am a historical fiction author who gets her inspiration from her family, although I only had to go back one generation to get a dynamite story for my debut novel, currently in query status. I’m excited to meet another woman who has found family past and present, to be a rich source of story ideas. Thanks for a great post.
