Jacqueline by Peter Carseldine

Jacqueline by Peter Carseldine

The story Jacqueline, while fictitious, is based on a friendship the author had during the mid-1960s. The sequence of events that appear as diary entries of 1965 and 1966 are factual and form the basis of the story. The rest of the narrative is pure fiction. The character Jacqueline portrays the author’s friend who tragically did take her own life in 1978. While the character name Jacqueline is not the name of the author’s friend, the story is written with a heartfelt memory of her.

Characters – believable or not…for that is the question? “A character is a person in a narrative work of arts (such as a novel, play, television series or film). Derived from the ancient Greek word kharaktêr, the English word dates from the Restoration.  Character, particularly when enacted by an actor in the theatre or cinema, involves “the illusion of being a human person. In literature, characters guide readers through their stories, helping them to understand plots and ponder themes”.  Snippet from Wikipedia Characters – there are so many to choose from. My imagination knows no bounds when conjuring up another character for my novels. The good, the bad, the ugly! The pretty, the villain, the joker. The heartthrob, the strong…

Steps to Becoming a World Famous Writer Okay, so the title is just a come-on. If there were steps, I would have gone down that path many years ago, but the journey I took hasn’t made me a world famous writer . . . just a published one. So how did I get there? What helped me become addicted to the art of wordsmithing?             Step One: Read, read, read. You can’t be a good writer or even a mediocre one without a reading background. For me, that started with DC Comics. Yes, I’ll admit it, Superman, Green Lantern, Flash,…

What scope should we have with ‘historical figures’ in our fictional writing? O.k., I know the above title is blasting itself in the backside, but as an historical author myself, I am always aware of keeping the ‘real characters’ as authentic as possible within a fictional setting, but just how easy do you think this is? Using characters from history intermingling them with fictional individuals can be like a terrible blind date if not careful, because nobody knows what conversations they did or didn’t have, what actions they may or may not have done, unless it was recorded, and just…
