-select- TheBookReportNetwork.com BookReporter.com ReadingGroupGuides.com AuthorYellowPages.com Teenreads.com Kidsreads.com 4. AOTW: If you write historical romances, how do you do your research? Sharon Robinson: I write contemporary romance but even that requires research.  I chose locations that I know well but need to revisit.  I spend time in restaurants, on buses, walking streets - listening to conversations.  I conduct interviews, consult professionals from the same field and research events through the Internet. Amanda Scott: I have a Master's Degree in history, and my focus was British history with an emphasis on England and Scotland and a secondary interest in Wales that has grown stronger over the years as I investigate family history. I do massive amounts of research for each book, although my son frequently says that I know more about 16th century Scotland and early 19th century England than I know about 20th or 21st century America. I'm sure he's right about that, but there is always more to learn, and since much of my story material comes from the research, and it's nearly always fascinating; it's the easiest part of writing for me. Brenda Joyce: Extensively. I hate libraries, so I tend to buy books online-nowadays you can get even the hardest to find material online-but it's pricey. I also, from time to time, con a friend into working as my assistant and she'll go to the library. For the Deadly series, I use lots of newspaper articles.

17. How Call Numbers Work Heraldry. CS Genealogy. CT general biography. biographies of most people and then by time period and author. PQ Literature, romance languages http://www.lib.utah.edu/information/LClong.html

How Call Numbers Work Books are shelved in alpha-numeric order and every book must be assigned a unique number. There are three main sections to a call number: CLASS NUMBER Everything before the first letter is the Class Number. It indicates the subject area covered by the book, and should be read as a whole number. For instance, GB105 is larger than GB103.5 BOOK NUMBER (sometimes called a Cutter number) The first letter indicates the start of the Book Number. It helps distinguish different books on the same subject and is usually based on the author's name and/or title of the book. Read these numbers one digit at a time. For instance, .R2 is larger than .R19 DATE OF EDITION If two books on the same subject are written by authors of the same name and have the same title (highly unlikely) a date of edition may prove the distinguishing factor. GB GB GB GB GB GB (.25 is smaller than .265, which is smaller than .28 which is smaller than .4. We use the classification system used at the Library of Congress (LC) which arranges books by their major subject. The list below shows the main areas of academic interest. Most general collection books are in the Stacks (new, outer building) on Levels One and Two.

Choose another writer in this calendar: by name: A B C D ... Z by birthday from the calendar Credits and feedback Herman Melville (1819-1891) American author, best-known for his novels of the sea and his masterpiece MOBY-DICK (1851), a whaling adventure dedicated to Nathaniel Hawthorne. "I have written a wicked book and feel as spotless as the lamb," Melville wrote to Hawthorne. The work was only recognized as a masterpiece 30 years after Melville's death. The fictionalized travel narrative of TYPEE (1846) was Melville's most popular book during his lifetime. "All that most maddens and torments; all that stirs up the less of things; all truth with malice in it; all that cracks the sinews and cakes the brain; all the subtle demonisms of life and thought; all evil, to crazy Ahab, were visibly personified, and made practically assailable in Moby Dick. He piled upon the whale's white hump the sum of all the general rage and hate felt by his whole race from Adam down; and then, as if chest had been a mortar, he burst his hot heart's shell upon it." (from Moby-Dick Herman Melville was born in New York City into an established merchant family. He was the third child of eight. His father, Allan Melvill, an importer of French dry goods, became bankrupt and insane, dying when Melville was 12. His mother, Maria Gansevoort Melvill, was left alone to raise eight children. Occasionally she received help from her wealthy relatives. A bout of scarlet fever in 1826 left Melville with permanently weakened eyesight. He attended Albany (N.Y.) Classical School in 1835. He left the school and was largely autodidact, devouring Shakespeare as well as historical, anthropological, and technical works. From the age of 12, he worked as a clerk, teacher, and farmhand. In search of adventures, he shipped out in 1839 as a cabin boy on the whaler

20. Authors On The Web - Romance Author Roundtable AOTW romance authors are prolific writers. Knowing that there are so many romance authors are writing, unless it is to have a general markettrend kind http://www.authorsontheweb.com/features/0202-romance/romance-q1.asp

-select- TheBookReportNetwork.com BookReporter.com ReadingGroupGuides.com AuthorYellowPages.com Teenreads.com Kidsreads.com 1. AOTW: Romance authors are prolific writers. Knowing that there are so many romance books published each year, how do you keep your ideas fresh and avoid traveling over well-worn territory? Nora Roberts: For me, character is key. Whatever book I'm working on, I've never written this book about these people in this situation before.  If I want the characters to be real to the reader, important and distinct to the reader, they have to be real, important and distinct to me first. If I do my job there, the story is going to be distinct, too. Susan Wiggs: In all genres - including mainstream and literary - the territory is limited if you look at it from the perspective of topic, issue or subject matter. In romance, the "well-worn territory" probably refers to fairytale situations like Cinderella or Beauty and the Beast, or traditional "hooks" such as "his secret baby" or "friends-to-lovers." But as far as I'm concerned, there are no limits. I tend not to think about the "idea" or "situation" so much as unique character's choices and responses. Nobody can own a setup or situation-each author puts her own unique spin on the familiar. For example, my recent "secret baby" book ( The You I Never Knew , Warner, 2000) avoided being a cliche because the "baby" was a sixteen-year-old juvenile delinquent.
