If you're interested to learn more about Veronica Franco, look for Rose's upcoming piece about her on Narratively. She also has book reviews coming out with Washington Independent Review of Books and BookBrowse that cover titles in the genres of history and current events.
She writes regularly on all things Blackhawks for Faxes From Uncle Dale, if you're into that type of thing. You can follow her on Twitter @rose_rankin.
