Bringing the American Revolution to Life Through Historical Fiction: Lori Piotrowski and the Molly Weston Chronicles

Lori Piotrowski is a writer with a fascinating and varied professional background. She holds a master's degree in Romance Languages from The Ohio State University and spent more than twenty years teaching Spanish and Portuguese to college-aged students.

Her career has also taken her through publishing, corporate communications, architectural photography, and public relations.

But one thread has remained consistent throughout her life: a love of books and reading. Lori credits her parents with encouraging that love from an early age. They made reading a family tradition, turning off the television each evening and spending time with books. Lori began building her own library as a young girl, saving her allowance to purchase books through the Scholastic Reader program.

That lifelong appreciation for reading eventually became part of her own work as an author.

Her historical fiction explores the American Revolution and the people who lived through one of the most consequential periods in our nation's history.

Today, we're going to talk about Lori's Molly Weston Chronicles, her approach to bringing the American Revolution to life through historical fiction, the challenges of blending real historical events with fictional characters, and why the stories of women who lived during this pivotal period deserve greater attention, particularly as we reflect on America's 250th anniversary.

You can also find her book, Revolutionary Spirit: The Molly Weston Chronicles, through her website and on Amazon.
