I don't know about you, but by us the weather is finally getting that crisp autumn feel.

Whatever your weather, one of my novels will probably be the perfect pairing.

Getting things accurate is fun for me. I WANT my reader to wonder if this thing is real. Setting fiction solidly in some factβ€”I thinkβ€”makes it more fun for both writer and reader. The writer gets to play with history while also (potentially) urging a reader down a fun rabbit hole alongside the text.
