Which do you prefer??
Are you a staunch historical or contemporary reader? Do you read an equal number of each? I think most readers have a willingness to read both depending on the blurb/their mood or if a book has been recommended to them.
But what about writers? Do we have to have a preference? I think...possibly. BUT as much as I love writing historical, every now and then I have a huge pull to write a contemporary novel or even series and this has happened to me lately. It's been years since I wrote anything contemporary, but last week I was struck by an idea and started writing. I have absolute certainty this is what I should be writing next so I am going for it!
At the moment, I think it will be a trilogy revolving around three sisters living in New York...
Would you welcome a new contemporary series from me? Or do you follow/read me because I've only written historicals for the last four years or so? I'd love to know!
There is no right or wrong answer - this new series will be written because I know the signs well enough by now to know that the characters won't leave me alone until I've told their story. Watch this space!
Have a wonderful, wonderful
Christmas, lovely Readers...
