Reminder:  Let's Read Historical Novels To Meet Tuesday, February 3

Our gathering on Accessible World this past month proved to be enthusiastic,
intelligent and downright fun!  As the discussion leader, I have looked
forward to our coming discussion on Tuesday, February 3.

For your convenience I have set up a blog for the group at
http://histnov.blogspot.com where you will find information on upcoming
meetings and a list of the times for many time zones.

In tandem with the Let's Read Historical Novels chat discussion on
AccessibleWorld.org, we have started a Freelist email discussion book on
general fiction.  To join, just send an email to
aw-booktalk-request at freelists.org with "Subscribe" in the subject field.
The email discussion is open to anyone interested in Accessible World's book
discussion groups.  It will be facilitated by Nan Hawthorne.

Our book for February 3 is my own first novel, An Involuntary King: A Tale
of Anglo Saxon England.  It's along book, so I hope you have had a chance to
start reading it!  I promise if you have not you will still enjoy the
conversation and have that many more insights when you do get to reading.

I welcome suggestions of what you would like to discuss about the book.  I
plan to ask for thoughts on individual characters, the plot, and the
storytelling.  I also would like to hear any ideas you have for where to
take this story on the web site I have set up for continuing tales of these
and other characters.  Look at http://www.shield-wall.com for a link to An
Involuntary King: Welcome to Críslicland.

If you have any questions before we meet in just less than two weeks, feel
free to contact me at hawthorne at nanhawthorne.com.
