I am still writing, but it is all going into my professor's hands for
now, being half way to earning a Masters Degree in Education is all
consuming right now. I researched some helpful tips about writing and
getting published. Rebecca Skoot has an amazing website and so much
helpful information for upcoming novelists like myself and curious
readers. She wrote The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. It is about
an African American woman whose cells became the backbone for
immeasurable research in the medical field but this was all done without
her or her family's knowledge or permission, I am not done with the
book as of now, but you know I will have a lot to say after I finish
reading it. I have read enough to know that this true story that took
ten years to research, it is a must read for all. Don't worry, you do
not have to understand science to understand the book. It is written in
a beautiful way that explains the concepts without making your head
spin.
I strongly urge you to read her book and check
out her website. She tells the reader how she researched the amazing
book. She has so many links to explore her creative process and the
story behind the story so to speak. So, enjoy her wealth of knowledge
and if you are as obsessed as I am, you can bookmark her website on all
of your internet devices as I did ;)
