Mr. Cornwell,
We’re seeing an increased interest in a more history approachable literature, lately. I’m not talking about Historical Fantasy per se, but something like Historically ‘friendly’ Fantasy, one writer of this kind of literature being George R. R. Martin. Why do you think this kind of literature is widening it’s range of readers?
I’ve read in your ‘Writer Advice’ you didn’t like the first third of “The Winter King” because you should have made the characters ‘busy’. How would you do that, if you don’t mind me asking.
Clearly I’m a fan of yours, but I have to thank you for having introduced me to an ‘older’ author that inspired me to start writing. Forrester is in my bookshelf and in my list of inspirational writers, by your side closely.
Thank you for the attention,
G.G. Leonardo
