If for some reason you won't be able to be here at that time, you can PM questions to me and I'll post them for you.
So be here on Sunday, and let's all give Ms. Penman a warm welcome!

- Interest in HF: started in childhood with the classics, which, IMHO are HF even if they were contemporary when written.
- Favourite HF book: Prince of Foxes, by Samuel Shellabarger
- Preferred HF: Currently prefer 1600 and earlier, but I'll read anything that keeps me turning the page.

Oh, I would love to ask her about re-writing Sunne in Splendour after the first manuscript was stolen, and if she felt she did a better job the second time around, or if there were some parts that she just couldn't get back. Except I will be at a conference from October 19-24 and probably will be too busy to do more than check in -- if even that. Rats!

Frankly I dont know why more historical fiction authors don't stop by. We're pretty cool. And why not go to your base, ya know. Drum up some business for your novels.

Are always to be found between the hooves of horses
For never will cowards fall down there.'
