How Art can Inspire Historical Fiction

Inspiration and obsession are two concepts that all writers keenly understand. The inspiration for my A Tale of Ancient Rome saga led me to a distant civilization in Tuscany and Lazio, and on a publishing journey from Australia to America. That odyssey lasted 16 years. I’m delighted to have told the story of how my love of art inspired the A Tale of Ancient Rome saga on TCK Publishing’s blog.
