Research in D.C.
I'm spending the week in our nation's capital doing research for a YA novel I'm currently working on. It's nice when you can combine work with family vacations.
What's been some of your funnest on-site research that you've done.
Looking on the web for a copy of your book Brave Little Monster has been funny. Not! I am so frustrated! It is not onsite research but it kind of is. Man that book is impossible to get a copy of and we lost ours in a fire and it is a must have for my kids. Any suggestions to the dilemma?
I wish I had a good answer, but Brave Little Monster went out of print last year and you can no longer get it at stores. Sometimes a used copy comes available on amazon for a reasonable price, but usually it's overpriced. Scholastic occasionally has it available through their book club, but I haven't seen it recently. Sorry. I really wish I had a better news.
