Home to author Sean McLachlan and the House Divided series of Civil War horror novels. A Fine Likeness, the first in the series, is available now. This blog is dedicated to the Trans-Mississippi Civil War and historical fiction, and occasionally veers off into adventure travel when I go somewhere interesting.

Guest blogging about Weaving Military History Into Fiction over at Osprey Publishing
My military history publisher Osprey Publishing has been kind enough to let me do a guest post about Weaving Military History Into Fiction. Yes, my nonfiction publisher is letting me talk about my fiction work, even though they have a fiction imprint! Osprey has always been great to work with and this just proves it. Head on over and check it out.
Couldn't comment there, so commenting here. I can imagine researching all of those elements nearly took over.
ReplyDeleteGoing there to check it out in a moment, but I gotta say, in writing my Commando novel (and now the sequel), Osprey books are my bread and butter. The combination of detailed photos, illustrations, great descriptions, and a very well broken-down, "small slice of the pie" approach to the subjects makes them invaluable. I'm buying 3-4 Osprey books a month now, and I keep finding more to order...
ReplyDeleteThey certainly are addictive. I devoured them as a teenager and still can't believe I'm a regular writer for them now!
