Hmmm....a Process Post
Nov. 14th, 2008 08:29 amI don't usually do these, because I don't know that anyone is really interested in my process, but I thought you might be interested in taking a look at what a weird-mobile I am...and the PB epic is providing a lovely chance...
So, how do I write a "Historical Fantasy-Romance"?
Well, you gotta start with the historical part.
Yep, that's most of my research (a couple of books already went back to the library). You can see that I did some work on-line, borrowed a horse-racing book, bought a book on Saratoga Springs (low on fact, high on pictures), got out my 'costume' folder (Imogen's going to be wearing that dress in the lower right hand corner on race day) and made copious notes.
And then I had to get my characters in my head... ( many more words after the cut )
Thought you might find this amusing. Do you do any of those things?
