Rocky Mountain Writer #30

Posted on February 7, 2016 by Mark Stevens

Jack Marshall Maness & Filling the Gaps in Historical Fiction

 
On Saturday, Feb. 6, Jack Marshall Maness delivered a presentation titled “Filling the Gaps in Historical Fiction.” The talk was given at the Bear Valley Branch Library in Denver to a packed room. Maness, the winner of the 2015 Colorado Book Award for best historical fiction for his novel Song of the Jayhawk, talked about his research process and how he finds the space between fact and imagination to move his stories forward. Song of the Jayhawk focused on pre-Civil War Kansas and so will the follow-up, due soon.
