Preview: Laurie Halse Anderson talks primary sources

An excerpt from my talk with the expert on how to find, interpret and use documents for historical fiction who took the time recently so we could discuss our shared love of primary sources

The Second Season of the Everything is a Primary Source podcast is nearing its end—this week in fact— but I’d like to use the final EPS Podcast short slot to give a preview of the bonus episode that will be released in a few weeks. Award-winning author Laurie Halse Anderson’s writing career boasts a litany of wonderful books, many of which are categorized as historical fiction. In this segment and throughout the entire conversation, Laurie and I discuss the methods of locating primary sources and how to properly curate what is collected.
