Re: Princess Elizabeth On VE Day

Which raises an interesting question - where do you draw the date line with
Historical Fiction. Speaking personally (and this may give a clue to my
age!) I cannot perceive any work of fiction set in or after the Second World
War as "Historical" Fiction. Even more especially I do not consider it
appropriate to write fiction about someone who is still alive. (Wouldn't it
in any case be considered libel under British law ???)

Just where would you all "draw the line" for history versus contemporary ?
