How important is research when writing a book? NYTimes best-selling author Rhys Bowen is here to help. In this talk, Rhys will talk about how she does her research and how important it is to feel the places she writes about so that she can transport a reader to a time and place, not merely tell them about it. Attendees can expect to walk about feeling more enlightened and inspired about research and writing good settings.Rhys Bowen is the New York Times bestselling author of the Molly Murphy mysteries, set in early 1900s New York City and the lighter Royal Spyness mysteries featuring a minor Royal in the 1930s. She also writes internationally bestselling historical novels.
Her latest is The Rose Arbor, currently nominated for the Mary Higgins Clark award. Her books have won ten awards to date and are translated into over thirty languages.
Rhys is a transplanted Brit who divides her time between Marin and Arizona.
