This week on the podcast Maureen Taylor, The Photo Detective, is joined by Colin Mustful, author, publisher, and founder of History Through Fiction.

He and Maureen discuss the differences between historical fiction, and what Colin calls “History Through Fiction,” where individuals write high-quality fiction that is rooted in historical research – or, as they call it on the podcast – history with footnotes! It’s a way to tackle history that encourages its readers to place themselves in the story – all within a historical context.

This is a wonderful conversation on this “new” genre and how you can go about querying Colin if you’re interested in publishing your own work.
