I am a member of the Historical Fiction Authors Cooperative, a group of authors who banded together several years ago because we wanted a way to reach people who were interested in finding good historical fiction ebooks. The group started small, and our membership is by invitation only, but we now have 47 members and nearly 200 books in our catalog on our website http://hfebooks.com.
We feature books and posts by our authors every Monday, and every Thursday we post a list of books that are currently free or discounted and announce new publications. If you are at all interested in historical fiction, I strongly suggest you go on over to the site and subscribe so you will get these posts.
Meanwhile, today with the publication of Deadly Proof, it is my turn to have a featured book and a blog post. Click here if you would like to read my blog piece about my inspiration for writing this series and a little about women in the printing industry.

Is the Historical Fiction Authors Cooperative open to only straight up historical fiction or would Outlander type historical fantasies be permitted?
We have some definite time slip and time travel books–see Sarah Woodbury’s work for example. However, the major focus is on the accuracy of the historical research and setting, so we haven’t really gone in the steam punk direction for our catalog. Its a fun genre, but not our main focus.
I’m looking forward to reading Deadly Proof–really enjoyed the first three in the series.
