Bonus episode

How to succeed in historical fiction

24 January, 2024

We’re excited to bring you this special bonus episode, available exclusively to our email subscribers. Two successful authors, traditionally published Gill Paul and independently published David Penny, explore what success means to them and how they’ve achieved it during their very different writing and publishing journeys.

Join Gill and David as they talk with hosts Theo and Julia and advise on overcoming an array of challenges, from the too many Thomases of the Tudor court to more universal hurdles. Those include how to evaluate an idea before committing to writing it, how to structure writing, research and promotions throughout the year, and how to balance commercial and creative considerations.
