Praise for Painting the Past
“More than just another 'how to write' manual, Painting the Past eschews formula approaches and gently coaches historical fiction writers on a range of strategies proven to produce exceptional results. No historical fiction writer should be without this...even those who have already published books.” ~Midwest Book Review

Hi, I'm Meredith Allard
Since 2000, I've been the executive editor of The Copperfield Review, a journal for readers and writers of historical fiction. I'm the author of the bestselling paranormal historical Loving Husband Trilogy, and my sweet Victorian romance, When It Rained at Hembry Castle, was named a best historical novel by IndieReader. My latest release, Painting the Past: A Guide for Writing Historical Fiction, was named a #1 New Release in Authorship and Creativity Self-Help on Amazon.
I'm pleased to share our first course, An Introduction to Writing Historical Fiction. I'm looking forward to sharing more courses for writers soon.
