Violin Flamed
Historical, interracial fiction?
Hi everyone, I’m writing a short story that is yet to be titled which tells the story of a young black violinist who travels to Italy for a classical music symposium over the summer where she meets a young village boy who falls in love with her violin playing and most importantly…her. Theirs is a brief romance where she returns home to the USA and he stays in Italy and they keep writing letters to one another, only to discover heartbreak and love’s flame die down.
I’m thinking of setting it during the 1940’s WWII but I don’t know how realistic that would be, should I make it modern instead of a “historical” romance? I just got inspired by listening to some classical violin right now…so I’m kind of on a roll..
any suggestions? Would you read it? Thanks for the replies…
Try writing about your characters as people first and see what time period you think they fit in first. When I write a story I like to make a list of their likes and dislikes things they do etc…
Or you can try starting a little in each period and see what works best. If you choose historical be sure to do plenty of research about that time so it can feel real.
Either way I’d love to read it. I’m a big fan of interracial romance.
(Will you post it online? I have an account on fictionpress.com so if you post it there send a link to Crescent City Chick)
