ABOUT THE CLASS:
Ever wonder if Regency women really could get away with some of the things you read about? Do you have a story where you ask yourself, “Can she do that…?†Nancy Mayer has worked to answer many questions on women of the Regency Era and in this workshop she will share what she has learned.
This workshop will focus on Regency woman and their roles, expectations, rights, and power. Including common myths and mistakes writers make in their stories. (Like can or how do woman obtain financial independence, and can they maintain it in marriage.)
ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:
Nancy Mayer has been researching the Regency for decades and trying to write for more years than she likes to remember. She has given several workshops on Regency subjects including one for the Beau Monde conference in Reno.
See her webpage for examples of some of the subjects she has covered: http://www.susannaives.com/nancyregencyresearcher/
