@bella-d And I’m thrilled you’re thrilled I know who those authors are! 🙂 Do you like Jeanne d’Albret because of reading the Chosen Daughters series? My favorite in that series was Margaret Wilson in Against The Tide.
Have you read any books by Lois Walfrid Johnson, Robert Elmer, or R. M. Ballantyne?
@notawriter and @daeus Thanks! My bra…[Read more]

@bella-d Welcome to Kingdom Pen! I’m a historical fiction lover and writer too. I’m currently obsessed with the French revolution and have just read The Scarlet Pimpernel, A Tale of Two Cities, etc, lately.
I love Elisabeth Elliot’s books too! Which is your favourite?

@bella-d That’s so cool you write historical fiction. Some of us on here do, but the vast majority write fantasy. I write both, and other genres as well. Who’s your favorite historical character?
@rochellaine Yep, it’s called contemporary fiction.

Welcome to the site @bella-d! Glad you joined us. 🙂 Are you more of a novel, novella, or short story writer?

Hey @bella-d !
Welcome to KP! What do you like to do when you aren’t writing?

@bella-d @dekreel I love those authors too!
H. Rider Haggard is an AMAZING Historical Fiction author.
Elizabeth Elliot – you should have heard of her husband Jim Elliot and Nate Saint, who were martyred by the Aucas, now called the Waorani. She later went back and taught her husband’s murderers about Christ.
Douglas Bond – Another His-Fic…[Read more]

@bella-d Have you seen how we “tag” people by putting an “@” symbol before their name? That sends an alert to our emails, so we can reply more easily. 🙂
@mnvalentine I actually don’t write fantasy. 🙂 That’s why I have trouble naming my genre. I do a little bit of Historical Fiction, and I did some time travel, which is Science Fiction, but…[Read more]

I love everything by Sir H. Rider Haggard, Elisabeth Elliot, Douglas Bond, and John J. Horn.
I’ve never heard of those books. What kind of stuff do they write?

@bella-d Imagination, which I have too much of, and research, which I probably do too little of 🙂

@bella-d Someone else will probably have explained by the time I’m done writing this post, but your rank has to do with how many times you’ve posted. I think you’re a bumbling henchman until twenty posts, and after that you’re a Charismatic Rebel like me. Beyond that, I have no idea what the post numbers and ranks are 🙂

@bella-d Those sound cool! I especially like historical fiction from ancient Rome and similar periods, but maybe it’s just because those are where the best I’ve read have been set. I write fantasy and am currently working on a high fantasy novel about a young queen whose throne is being threatened. And I think it is a normal routine…[Read more]

Oh @mnvalentine, definitely a rite of passage! I haven’t said it yet either, but you beat me to it. 🙂
@bella-d My absolute favorite genre is Historical Fiction! I have had a bit of trouble writing in that genre, though. I write mostly modern fiction (is there a name for that genre?).
