In this session, Trisha R. Thomas will share how authors have successfully mined historical sub-genres to show writers how to make their own unique historical stories. ($79.99 value)

Making Historical Characters True to Their Times--Yet Relatable to Modern Readers (Webinar) - Consider all the thoughtful creativity writers use to create a character--personality, motivation, background, and so much more. While developing characters for fiction set in historical times--any time period before the 2000's--writers face an additional challenge: how to balance making characters true to their times yet relatable to modern readers. This session will provide insights, tips, and techniques for historical writers to successfully handle this tricky balancing act. ($79.99 Value)

10 Tips for Writing Accurate and Engaging Historical Fiction (Webinar) - One of the trickiest parts of writing historical fiction is balancing between maintaining historical accuracy and writing a compelling story.

Turning Historical Figures Into Fictional Detectives (Webinar) - USA TODAY Bestselling and Agatha Award-winning Author Amanda Flower will discuss the tricks and tips for turning real life historical figures into fictional characters. Flower is the author of the Emily Dickinson Mystery Series and the Katharine Wright Mystery Series featuring the Wright Brothers.

($79.99 value)

Strategies for Keeping Historical Fiction Fresh and Innovative (Webinar) - Sometimes the challenge in writing historical fiction is knowing the story a little too well, which can get in the way of telling a really good story. In this session, Amanda Churchill shares strategies for getting outside the story to keep the writing fresh and innovative for readers. ($79.99 value)

Using Historical Facts for Character Development (Webinar) - Historical fiction is a writing genre that often combines a little bit of the real with a little (and maybe sometimes a lot) of the fictional.

Coleman leads writers through the process of using historical facts to develop engaging characters for historical fiction. ($79.99 value)

Managing the Icky and the Tricky in Historical Fiction (webinar) - Readers love travelling back in time for compelling stories of yore.

($79.99 value)

Structure as Strategy: Building Pace in Historical Narratives (Webinar) - In this session. we'll focus on two pillars of historical writing: pacing and structure. A thoughtful and well-organized structure will guide the reader, even during complex or complicated plot points. It will also allow for information to be shared without the text feeling over-expository. Meanwhile, pacing will work alongside structure to push the plot forward and keep both writer and reader in the narrative sweet spot (not too abrupt, but without lingering too long). ($79.99 value)

And, whether or not writers can identify what inspired their work, the idea had to come from somewhere! In this issue, paired with the ever-popular Writer’s Digest 101 Best Websites for Writers, you’ll find articles that will help you get inspired and find the resources to make that inspiration work for you. ($9.99 value)

Quality pipes for a good price
Size: 42inch Tall (NOT included wood planks), Color: Black
This item is just as described. It is the pipe fitting portion of a 3 shelf unit. You must buy your shelving separately once the rails have been installed. Purchasing the pieces this way was much more cost-effective than separately buying each part from the hardware store, and all the pieces were clean and ready to be mounted unlike the pieces from the hardware store. It was moderately difficult to hang, since you are trying to keep everything very level. I imagine the distance between each rail will be a factor in how easy this is to level. The difficulty may have also stemmed from the fact that we were mounting it in a small toilet room and had little room to maneuver during the installation process. Still, it is a good product and we are considering purchasing a second one for another location in our home.

Not real Black Iron, but works just as well
Size: 42inch Tall (NOT included wood planks), Color: Black
First, these parts that I got were not real Black Iron pipes like you would pick up at a hardware store, they are like furniture grade tubes for an IKEA shelving system. The thread would fit 3/4 pipe from like HD, but they are not the same, I know this because I just bought some of the pipe and parts for a small shelf right before ordering this. I should have known from the price, the real stuff is kind of pricey, but nicer. The elbows and T-connectors as well as the flanges seem more like galvanized steel painted black. HOWEVER, the end product is pretty nice and very versatile as to where you would want to put it. It is still pretty sturdy, and if screwed into a stud, I believe it would hold a lot of weight. The entire shelving system is painted black, so unlike Black Iron, it will not stain your hands black when handling it. Putting this together took about 30 min, the longest part was adjusting angles and lengths to get it flat and squared, but was not hard at all. This kit does NOT come with shelf boards, so length of that is up to you. It also came with mounting screws, but they are thin and I would suggest as your getting boards for shelves, also pick up some beefier screws, U used #12 - 1 1/4" wood screws with the sleeves for drywall and a little longer for securing it into a stud. All in all, this black pipe shelf looks nice, is nice and will work out great, just know, it is not the real Black Iron pipes and parts you would get from a hardware store, but the threads would fit if you wanted to add to this. I only knocked down one star because of this, and if I am going to buy more of these, I would prefer the real stuff and not go with this one.

Love these!!!
Size: 42inch Tall (NOT included wood planks), Color: Black
Super sturdy..looks excellent. Industrial and clean lines....lots of space for our kids bathroom. The wood does not come with it but was easy to get lowes. We actually added another shelf on the top bracket to make 4 shelves. They're nice and wide to fit baskets and organize things. For teenagers bathroom! My husband installed by himself and he isn't the handiest of guys but it it wasn't bad. I do recommend getting pipe fastners to secure the boards to the pipes so they don't shift around

Nice pipe shelves! Excellent quality!
Size: 28inch Tall (NOT included wood planks), Color: Black
I really like the fact that the pieces were already painted. I compared the cost of the unit to buying the pieces from the big box store and this was far more cost effective for me. The installation went well and I ended up creating a template for installation. For the template, I measured the width of one of the flanges (part that mounts to the wall), cut a piece of material the same width. I found the center and drew a line down the middle. I then placed the section with top and bottom holes over the center line and then marked the other two holes. I then drilled out the holes, put on wall and used level to plumb. I used small pilot drill bit to drill through the template into the wall. One thing to note is that I did not use the included anchors instead opting for some from the big box store.
