REQUEST AN AUTHOR INTERVIEW

Would you like to be featured in an HNS Sponsored Author Interview on this website? We also take requests from publishers on behalf of their historical fiction authors.

We only consider interviews that are timely because the book is new or about to be launched, or topical in terms of a significant anniversary or other tie-in.

Example of a Sponsored Author Interview

Launch: Catherine Kullman's A Comfortable Alliance

How much is it?

Fees are £25 for HNS members and £60 for non-members. Find out more about joining the Society.

Or become an interviewer yourself...

Members may defray payment for an interview by emailing us about volunteering to interview other authors.
