An International Open Mic for Historical Fiction Authors

 

The New York City Chapter of the Historical Novel Society presents this program from February 21, 2026. Faith Justice moderates our International Open Mic for historical fiction authors. Thirteen members join her in a Zoom meeting to read excerpts from their published books and works-in-progress. The historical times and places range from Mesolithic Scotland to WWII stories set in Ireland, France, Germany, and Spain. Along the way, we make stops in 13C Spain and London, 16C Scotland and Tudor England,18C US and Ottoman Empire, 19C New York City and San Juan Island. A Q&A follows the readings.
