Newsreels & Nylons: Turning Historical Research into Fiction
Whether the thought of it fills you with delight or dread, research is an unavoidable part of writing historical fiction. From archival records to youtube channels and reddit threads to radio plays, this workshop will explore the weird and wonderful world of historical research. We’ll discuss when (or when not!) to do it, where to start, what to look for, and how to stay organized. We’ll also discuss incorporating research into fiction, including how to assess historical versus narrative value, nailing those details, and when to let it go. Participants will be given several writing prompts, and take home a template for organizing their own research.
