If you’re reading this, you lived through Boris Johnson. You do not have to read so much as a single sentence of his book. You’ve earned that right. Many other works of historical fiction are being published today.

Man sits by me on train. MAN: Loads of psychopaths around here ME: Really? MAN: Loads mate ME: How'd you know? MAN: There's signs aren't there? ME: I guess? MAN: I love them (47 minutes of awkward silence.) Man leaves train, he has a bike. I realise he was saying 'cycle paths'.

As a brief interlude during #HistoryWritersDay24, why not make a cup of tea and have a quick read of this article that appeared in @HistoriaHWA magazine in August. All about the perils and pluses of using real people in historical fiction. historiamag.com/using-real-peo…
