Valerie Anand is a British author of historical fiction. Under the pen name Fiona Buckley she writes the series of historical mysteries, set in the reign of Elizabeth I of England, featuring "Ursula Blanchard" (whose full name is Ursula Faldene Blanchard de la Roche).
Anand talked to us about her writing, love of history, feminist leanings, and research methods from her South London home.
ValerieAnand: My father was a good teller of stories to small children and so was his aunt, my great aunt Clara.
I may write things under the name of ValerieAnand in the future, just as I did in the past, and would hate to lose out on readers who know me as Fiona Buckley and don't realize that ValerieAnand is the same person!
