THERE IS NO CHARGE TO BE LISTED on this blog, however... I do ask for a reciprocal link. (To my own website, www.kimnormanbooks.com, not this author-by-state site. Why invite competition on your own site, right?)
MY DEFINITION OF "TRADITIONALLY PUBLISHED"... If you're with a publisher you know I'll recognize, (established pros will know) then... not to worry. Write to me and I'll add you. If you have any doubts, rather than haggle over what qualifies as traditional, I'm going to simplify things. CLICK THIS LINK and scroll down to a list of publishers approved by SCBWI to be included in their Publishers Market Survey. If you see your publisher on this list, write to me. If not, then you're with a publisher that's too obscure for you to be added to this site. I'm sorry to make this distinction, but with over 700 links already, I don't want the site to become so unwieldy that it loses its original intent: to save educators time when "shopping" for an author. And... paper books only, please, not e-books.

A room with a new view



Took my writing outside today -- even farther than my front yard. Tossed my laptop into the car and drove to the Windsor Castle parking lot. (Yes, I KNOW I could have walked the trail to get there, but I was eager to get on with the writing.) Set up my laptop on a table in the brand new picnic area and had the whole place to myself. Used my computer's camera to snap these photos of my surroundings. Lovely lovely day -- if a little bit sneezy!
