Huge thanks to Kayte Nunn, Kirsty Manning, Alli Sinclair, Darry Fraser, Tea Cooper and Christine Wells giving us the inside story when it comes to writing dual timeline historical fiction. Writing dual timelines novels is hard yakka as some folks here in Australia might say, however, some authors seem to take it in their stride, blanking storylines, crafting compelling characters, magically weaving the past and the present together seamlessly. It . is an enormous thrill to be able to share insights and wisdom from seven superb Aussie authors as they reveal their tips and techniques for mastering this intricate and slippery story form.
