Do you prefer your historical fiction to be in first person, past tense? I know that is how I wrote A Loveless Marriage but now that is coming to an end, I need to start on my next book soon! 
          	
          	I've got an idea for a story or two have started drafting the first chapter but I wasn't sure how people would react if it isn't written through the characters eyes like in A Loveless Marriage. 
          	
          	I'm also toying with doing a collection of short stories, so was wondering how you feel about those as well?

@JessicaHSwift I am ok with first person. I am thoroughly enjoying A Loveless Marriage. I feel first person works well for this story. 
          	  
          	  I enjoy your writing style very much and look forward to the next body of work you share with us.

Really happy that I have got back into writing again! Life has been pretty difficult in the last few years, so thank you all for sticking by me and still reading A Loveless Marriage even though I am hopeless at updating. 
          
          I love reading your comments and seeing how you react to each chapter. Please keep doing it! 
          
          I really do appreciate you all.

My dearest readers. Something huge has happened and it's all because of you. Today, A Loveless Marriage reached #5 in the romance category. The 5th of over a MILLION wonderful books on this app. I really couldn't have done this without all your love, support and encouragement.

Congratulations!!!  It should reach #1 since your writings are so beautifully executed.  I love Mary’s characters full of grace, good principles and morals value.  Love Fred’s frank and flawless characters.   In conclusion, reading your stories touch my soul.

Thoroughly enjoyed reading A Loveless Marriage. Hope there may be more. If Mary and Fred have shared their secrets or just discover them independently. Enjoying your character development. Want to know if Daniel is truly wonderful or only so through inexperienced eyes.
