You’ll learn how to tackle character development, setting, and world-building in ways that fit your story, rather than getting bogged down in unnecessary details.

About the author

Penelope Clare

19 books3 followers
Penelope Clare writes evocative historical fiction inspired by true stories, vivid places, and the bold women history forgot. Her Bold Women series—beginning with A Bold Pursuit and continuing with A Bold Adventure—brings to life a world of immigrant voyages, quiet resistance, and hard-won transformation.

A lifelong lover of storytelling, Penelope blends meticulous research with emotional depth to craft immersive, character-driven novels that explore resilience, identity, and freedom. Alongside her fiction, she also helps other writers through her nonfiction series I Did, You Can Too!
When she isn’t writing, she’s chasing down genealogy clues, sailing the New Zealand coast, or dreaming up her next adventure.



⭐ Editorial Praise for A Bold Adventure

“A Bold Adventure is rich, immersive, and emotionally arresting—full of striking sensory detail, authentic character growth, and a world that feels lived in. Evelyn is a heroine readers will root for: complicated, courageous, and utterly human. This is historical fiction that lingers long after the last page.”
— Chloe, Booklyst Edtorial Services
