For the reader and me!<\/p>\n I began my career writing contemporary because I\u2019d always been told to \u2018write what you know\u2019. I have devoured romantic suspense for as long as I can remember and so my first two novels with The Wild Rose Press were romantic suspense. I then wrote a romantic comedy. Throughout writing and promoting these books, I began to wonder whether I could attempt an historical\u2026. after all, I didn\u2019t \u2018know\u2019 how to abduct or murder anyone as the characters did in my first two books .\u00a0 \u263a<\/p>\n Like most (if not all) writers I read voraciously and reading historical work, whether novels or biographies, is amongst my favorite choices. I love history! I am drawn to British Royal history especially, but also love the social and industrial changes of the Victorian and Edwardian eras. As I was, and still am, intimidated by including real people and events in my work, I decided my first attempt would be Victorian and focus entirely on fictional characters and their emotions.<\/p>\n Emotion is key in romance. Love, hate, revenge, loss, joy and tenacity would have been felt in the same way in the late 1800s as they would today. So with this thought at the forefront of my mind, I dove straight in and wrote The Arrival of Lily Curtis (The Wild Rose Press). It sold a lot more copies than my previous contemporary work so that gave me the confidence to continue.<\/p>\n The main \u2018highs\u2019 for me writing in the two genres is the diversity in setting and premise \u2013 the life problems or goals women face today are profoundly different than they were in the past\u2026even if the emotional challenges are the same. These different shifts and changes of what women want gives a whole range of ideas of where to start with a story and how to tackle it.<\/p>\n The main \u2018lows\u2019 for me is managing to finish one genre before I have to work on the other. More often than not, I am writing one book, editing another and promoting another, which means I have to jump from contemporary to historical a lot throughout the year. As much as I love the challenge, it can be difficult when I am totally immersed in a contemporary or historical and then forced to stop in order to meet a deadline for a book of the other genre.<\/p>\n Having said that, I wouldn\u2019t change my current work status for the world \u2013 as long as publishers and agents still want me to write both contemporary and historical, I will. Long may it continue!<\/p>\n ABOUT RACHEL BRIMBLE<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Rachel lives with her husband and two teenage daughters in a small town near Bath in the UK.
