Interview with Dawn Crandall (Timeless Love)

About the Author

Award winning author Dawn Crandall earned a BA in Christian Education from Taylor University, but always knew writing books would be a part of her future. She’s been balancing books and babies lately since her two sons were both born as the four books of her Everstone Chronicles series were being released from Whitaker House (2014 to 2018). Dawn lives with her husband and two young sons on a hobby farm in her hometown in northeast Indiana.

The Interview

1. If you could travel anywhere in the world for book research (expense covered for you by an anonymous donor), where would you go and why?
England. I don’t think I’d be able to help writing a true regency romance if I ever went there and was able to take it all in in person. 
 
2. What genre(s) do you write?  Why do you choose to write in this genre?
I write historical romance from first person point of view (heroine’s inner perspective) set in New England during the 1890s. 
 
3. What top 5 books are currently on your TBR pile?
I don’t have much time to read right now (I have two little ones!), so I feel like this pile hasn’t changed in a really long time! 
 
Lady and the Lionheart by Joanne Bischof
Edenbrook by Julianna Donaldson
Blackmore by Julianna Donaldson
Mistress of Tall Acre by Laura Frantz
The Captured Bride by Michelle Griep
 
4. What  inspired your idea for Enchanting Nicholette?
When there’s a side character from a previous book that just needs the best, most romantic second chance at a happy ending—I just have to write one for them! 
 
5. What do you want readers to take away from reading Enchanting Nicholette?
That God works all things together for those who love Him. 
 
6. What is your current WIP?  What can you tell us about this project?
I haven’t started my next project (little kids!), but I’m outlining a few different plots to send proposals out for—there are two book ideas related to The Everstone Chronicles series, but which will be stand alone novels because they’re so far removed from the rest of the stories. One is about Roxy Blakeley and the other about Mabel Hawthorne. And then I have a completely unrelated book idea set during the same era, but based out of Cleveland, Ohio (which was a very prominent town in the late 1800s!) and the Great Lakes region. And I also have a Contemporary Romance... all of which will be written from first person POV.
