How to Write
Historical Fiction
Pull out your history books, set your
imagination to a historical era in North
Carolina, and give it a try! Tell other junior
historians what it was like to “ live” during a
particular time in history.
Personal facts + Period
details + Imagination =
Historical fiction!
Personal facts
Historical fiction is a way to think historically
and write about what happened in the past as
if you had lived in that different time. It
focuses on the facts of a person’s life— What
years did she live? What kind of work did he
do? Was he rich or poor? Where did she live?
Could he read and write? Research the person
you are writing about to discover the
accomplishments that made him or her
important. These facts, combined with period
details and your imagination, create a fuller
picture of what that person’s life was like.
Period details
Find out about historical lifestyles— How did
people dress? How did they travel? What
kinds of food did they eat? What kinds of
houses did they live in? What were the
weather conditions? Facts about a person’s
surroundings are important, useful elements
