Author Jennifer Hallock explains her IASPR paper on chronotopes in historical romance, and why our familiarity with Regency romance might be hindering us from appreciating romances set in other historical settings. We talk about the additional work that authors of diverse historical romance have to do to construct their stories, and some of the challenges that Jennifer faced when writing her own books. (And a bonus for fans of Father Andres: We talk about his defrocking!)
