How have you gone about researching your historical novels? Aside from the typical elements of environment and society that any writer of historical fiction must address, you have dealt with fairly specific details, such as laws regarding betrothal and marriage, guardianship, and inheritance.
Grace Burrowes
I travel, I read biographies, I read autobiographies, I read original sources (letters, books published in the day, newspapers from back when). I'm always on the look out for more good material!

Grace Burrowes:
Dear Grace, are all of the Windham cousins going to have their own stories, or are only Tony's daughters going to be featured? After all, Peter did have daughters as well. Are the contemporary novels going to feature any Windhams? Why is there a question mark for a couple of the relationships on the family trees of the Lonely Lords? Surely it can't be hard to determine whether they were legitimate or illegitimate.

Grace Burrowes:
Dear Grace, your Windham and Lonely Lords family trees make it very confusing as to the birth order of the leads of these two series and their siblings, except for the eldest. Can you at least let us know the Windham and Haddonfield siblings' birth orders or, better yet, rearrange the family trees if possible? Also, when exactly in these books did the reign of George III end and that of George IV begin?
