Author Alcove: Andrew Joyce on Researching and Writing Historical Novels

I’m excited to share part two of author Andrew Joyce’s guest blogs here on The Geeky Bibliophile. If you missed part one, you can find it here.

Historical fiction is one of my favorite genres, and I always find it fascinating to discover how authors approach the task of historical research. I really enjoyed learning about Andrew’s process, and I hope you will, as well.

Once again, I’m honored to welcome Andrew to the blog. Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts on research with us, Andrew!

Author Alcove: Andrew Joyce on the Inspiration behind “Yellow Hair”

Today I’m honored to host the first of two guest blogs written by author Andrew Joyce. In this first post, Andrew shares the inspiration behind his latest work, Yellow Hair.
