America, etc. My favorite time setting (probably because I have read so many) is the Regency period, but I have read many more before that for like the 13th Century to the 18th. I prefer historicals set before the industrial age/when cars began to be used. I guess for me, that is just not historical enough :) But I have read some stories that I did enjoy from that time period.<br />June<br />manning_J2004 at yahoo dot comJune M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14929817630779731177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7926345421909415577.post-21945746665546127132012-11-19T23:40:03.536-05:002012-11-19T23:40:03.536-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.June M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/14929817630779731177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7926345421909415577.post-41147937610366096452012-11-19T12:36:28.365-05:002012-11-19T12:36:28.365-05:00As long as the story and characters are interestin...As long as the story and characters are interesting, I don't have a favorite historical setting.

A couple of specific comments:<br /><br />Carrie - An Infamous Marriage is currently available only in ebook, though there's a chance it might be made available as POD at some point.<br /><br />Susan, I agree that the turn of the 20th century in America is a fascinating time, though one I doubt I'll ever write myself. If I move out of the Regency, I'd probably go back in time to the 17th or 18th century, or even to ancient Greece or Rome, rather than forward.<br /><br />Cathy, I like the clothes, too, though some decades were better than others. If I ever write sequels about my current characters' children, I'd need to set them in the 1830's, and those dresses with the absurdly puffy sleeves just make me sad. :-)Susanna Fraserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16149293228696867804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7926345421909415577.post-18605172321392610072012-11-18T19:31:55.368-05:002012-11-18T19:31:55.368-05:00Sounds fantastic!
