Once Upon a Time
It's all about the story
Genealogist Carol Baxter turned her hobby into a writing career when she stumbled across a political sex scandal and had her manuscript picked up by the first major publisher she approached.
Carol writes narrative nonfiction — that is, history told as a story. In this lesson, she teaches you how to craft a story for a family history or biography.
