I have written many historical books about women of the Old Testament, including Esther, Bathsheba, Delilah, and the women in Moses' life.

How long do you spend researching these books, longer than it takes to write them? Do you have anyone who researches on your behalf? I'm an older woman just beginning to write , mostly short stories, but have an idea for a novel with Christian threads throughout. Do you closely plot story and timeline and historic facts ? How do you keep the balance? Thank you so much
