NO MAN (or WOMAN) IS AN ISLAND
---A Salute to Creative Authors who keep us going!
So, how was your week? I won’t comment on mine except to say
if it wasn’t for family, and wonderful Writing Buddies in the AKRWA writer’s group, I would probably be stark-raving mad by now. Major back surgery in February of 2012 put a cramp in my style. I’m still recovering, but I’m proud to say the setbacks have given me more time to write, and read!
I’m well into writing a new manuscript (60,000 words so far) and my reading has included research for my World War I storyline, books from friends, and the works of our wonderful Alaska Romance Writers of America authors who have recently published books.
I must say, we have a talented group of writers here in the Last Frontier. Success rates for publishing has been phenomenal and I highly recommend these books:

Hi Jae,
Boy, when you put them together in one list, we can really see how productive our group is! And I am sure your name will be on the published side one day, just a matter of time.
What kinds of resources do you find useful in your research?
Ahhhhhhh Thanks :)
Wow! What a great list! And I admire the progress you are making on your manuscript. Great post!
Hi, Lynn...yes, LOTS of successes for the RWA Alaska Chapter lately.
I read history books, of course! (but TV documentaries are so great because I am a visual person.
Thanks for commenting! :o)
Great book, Maxine - you're more than welcome! ;o)
Thanks, Tam - I'm excited about my new manuscript...hope your sequel to 'Botanicaust' is well on its way, too! :o)
