Kiersten Marcil
BIOGRAPHY

Author and Adventurer into History!

Kiersten hails from New England. Growing up, the battlefields of Saratoga were her backyard, tourist sites like Fort Ticonderoga were an easy day trip, and Kiersten couldn’t have cared less back then. It wasn’t until journeying into adulthood that she grew to love books, and even then, not until she became a museum educator that she discovered the
fascinating world of history.

A walking contradiction, she has a fondness for coffee by day, tea after dinner, doesn’t watch television often but late-night comedians on their YouTube channels every evening, adores cats but not their claws, the idea of dogs unless it comes to owning one, and hates the outdoors unless it involves Revolutionary War sites or kayaking.

Kiersten currently lives in Upstate New York with her family: The Husband, Useful Son, and Subsequent Son, as they are affectionately known on social media, along with her two furry children, her co-author and research assistant.

      • Recently, I heard great advice that said success for an author should not be about an event but about process. Part of this is because in reaching that event, the fall-out may not feel like success, perhaps because it didn't go as planned. So, prior to this, I would have said winning an award or reaching a bestseller status would be an indication of success. And, goodness knows, I have had the great privilege of being published and (separately) having been thanked in someone else's acknowledgement section of their published work.

        At the moment, while still processing this advice and new perspective, I guess success to me would look like engaging in regular literary-related activities that not only are wonderful because of the experiences and networking opportunities they provide but also ease the worries of my pocketbook. It stresses too much and really just needs to sit back and enjoy the ride more. :)

      • General George Washington: so I can try to glean some of his thoughts and understand history's hero;
        Colonel Thaddeus Kosciuszko, engineer, soldier, & Polish immigrant (appears in book two): to enjoy his passion for life and flattery that he often gave women due to sincere admiration; and
        Major John Andre, British Adjunct & spy master (appears in book 4): to discuss all things arts-related and discover why even Continental soldiers like Washington and Benjamin Tallmadge (his American counterpart) admired him so much.

      • Honestly... I didn't know I wanted to be an author until May 2019, when I suddenly decided I wanted to write a book and then went on to write several. Looking back, I can see the signs of how much I enjoyed writing before that revelation. So, if I had anything to say to my younger writing self, it would be: Guess what?!!

    • Writing can be an emotionally draining and stressful pursuit. Any tips for aspiring writers?

      • Treat it like a job with regular business hours and a dedicated writing space, even if that means a half hour during your lunch break in your car. The key is to force yourself to keep those hours, regardless of whether you want to. Those hours can be spent researching, marketing, or actual writing. Just make sure you do something.

        Also, word count goals of how many words you must write per session is really disheartening to writers, from what I've seen of others. Rather than stress yourself out by meeting (and potentially failing to meet) this goal, focus instead on dedication to pushing yourself forward.
