114: Laura Frantz

Today it is such fun to introduce you to my friend Laura Frantz. She is an award-winning author of historical romances, and we're talking about her latest novel The Seamstress of Acadie. This book is set in Canada with the French Acadians and follows the story of people who are sent from their homes in Canada to Louisiana and beyond. It's a story that will pull at your heart. Because she wrote this book during the pandemic, Laura wasn't able to do the on-site research that she usually does. That meant her research had to take different turns. Still, it's deeply embedded in the real experiences and that vitality comes out in the story. You'll enjoy hearing about the joys and challenges of her research as well as learning about a fun summer opportunity to travel to London with Laura and Pepper Basham in June 2024. The Quill and Tea Tour sounds like so much fun and is going to some of my favorite places in England including York, Oxford, and London. Finally, you won't want to miss her writing advice if you're an aspiring or current writer.
