Hi Catherine Lee,
for L...From the author, Anna:<br /><br />Hi Catherine Lee,<br /> for Louisa, and other historical figures I've worked with, I feel a great responsibility to write from the truth of the actual person. I invent circumstances - the séance for instance - but the Louisa who attends that séance is as close to fact as I can get her. Her age, her living circumstances, the stage she's in with her work...all those are based in reality.<br /><br /> Great question.

The idea of having a real historical person at the heart of a fictional novel is very interesting to me. What responsibility, if any, do you feel towards getting certain facts right about Louisa?<br /><br />catherinelee100 at gmail dot comCatherine Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998035693869891918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8984447002646611353.post-58977976095513907912012-02-21T12:48:54.138-05:002012-02-21T12:48:54.138-05:00A comment from the author, Anna (who's unable ...A comment from the author, Anna (who's unable to post here for some reason):<br /><br />Tweezle, thanks so much for your comments on my mystery!
