"In the subject area you identified in last week’s entry, state three topics in which you have an interest that you would like to write about this semester. What is it about these topics you find interesting? What is your connection to these topics?"
Here are my three topics within my subject area and what I'd like to write about this semester. For a quick recap, the topic I wanted to pursue and do more research on was how to write a novel :).
- How to get a novel published.
- How to get an updated issue on publishing markets for books in my chosen age category.
- How to find a publisher you can send your novel to for them to look over.
I know it looks like a bit of a rehash from my first entry/assignment but these topics have currently become of interest to me. My connection to these topics is quite simple to figure out; because I love writing stories and someday want to get something of my own published. Ever since I was a small child, I was curious to see what authors had to do to get their work out there for people to see. Me being naive thought it was the easiest thing to do. After doing a bit of research I realized that it isn't and that I have a lot of work ahead of me to even get one good piece of my work published. I hope with more research that I will not only have more "meat" added to my final project but that I will have more knowledge of what I will most likely want to do for the rest of my life :).
Edit: Just so this is all in one place...
My official topic: How to write and publish a novel.
Some websites that will become of interest when I begin researching...
How to Write a Book: Generating Writing Ideas
All of these articles are from this site, I'm sure I'll have more after I continue researching! :)
