We recently took a poll in RAR Premium about favorite reading genres, and it turns out that historical fiction isn’t just my favorite genre, but it’s the favorite of many of you as well.

Today, I’ve invited historical fiction lover and award-winning author Anna Rose Johnson to join me to discuss just what it is about historical fiction that draws us in.

We’re also chatting about the inspiration for her stories, her research process, and what her parents did to support her as a budding writer. In turn, she shares a ton of recommendations for her favorite historical fiction for young readers.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • How historical fiction sweeps readers through a portal to another world
  • How Anna Rose breaks down her research process into stages so it doesn’t get overwhelming
  • How re-reading helped Anna Rose develop her ear and voice as a writer
