Dear Friends,

We at REA have so enjoyed bringing interviews, stories, and articles that entertain and educate our loyal readers. It has been our endeavor to maintain a site that you can visit and always walk away with something special.  So, we want to keep it "live" for new readers to stop by and visit.

At this juncture, we will be continuing our Sabbatical for the time being, although we will periodically upload new material. As for me, my work in Oral History is taking an exciting leap forward. I have a book that will be published in 2007 and am currently researching/interviewing for my next. Writing the stories and experiences of the individual is my favorite venue.  At this juncture of my writing and editing career, I'm pursuing this subject with greater emphasis.  

I have so enjoyed corresponding and working with each and every one of you.  I'll will keep you posted on my progress.  And remember - always keep a positive attitude and reach for your dreams!

Professor Stuart's Featherduster
by Valerie Collins
Tutoring a 14 year-old student sounded just perfect for math wiz Brooke Carmichael.  Besides, it would be a lot easier than waiting around for the approval of her doctoral thesis. Wrong! Brooke was about to find out how complicated mistaken identity and the handsome Cameron Stuart would make her life!


Sometimes...Less is More
by Valerie Collins
Meg meets wealthy Dr. Jared Stone for dinner but thoughts about her best friend and neighbor Matt keep coming to mind.  When Matt announces that he is moving away, the unexpected proves that the best things can be found right under your nose!

If you enjoy history, consider setting
your plot and characters in a
historical setting.  When you
opt for a historical backdrop, an overall
knowledge of the particular period
is important.
Recommendation:
Read up on the President of the time.
Consider the following references
which provide an overview to begin
your research:
"The History of the American Presidency"
by John Bowman
ISBN: 1-57215-318-0
"The First Ladies: Their Lives and Legacies"
by Deborah Jones Sherwood
ISBN: 0-7607-4494-7
