From March 14th to April 3, 2012, I conducted a survey of historical fiction readers. In total, 805 individuals responded. The data sheds light on preferences and habits of historical fiction readers and offers interesting insights to writers and others in the publishing world.

From the World of Historical Fiction – Readers Share Their Perspectives is the first summary of survey results. Over the next few weeks, I will dig deeper to provide further analysis and cross-tabbing of results.

I look forward to hearing your feedback.

Many thanks to Sarah Johnson at Reading The Past who posted a survey link on her popular blog.
