Non-fiction idea
Saturday, December 10th, 2005

I’m looking into writing an annotated bibliography/reference book on romance/romantic fiction. I’ve found three and, well, there’s been maybe a few romance titles published since the last one came out in 2000. As a librarian (not a romance writer) I thought I might look into publishing in this area. I know the ALA (Amer. Lib. Assoc.) and Libraries Unlimited both publish bibliographies on fiction genres. That way I can double-count the publication on both my librarian resume and my author resume. I looove double dipping!

Here’s what I’ve found/had pointed out ot me:

  • The Romance Reader’s Advisory: The Librarian’s Guide to Love in the Stacks by Ann Bouricius (2000)
  • Romantic Hearts by Peggy J. Jaegly (1997)
  • The Romantic Spirit: A Romance Bibliography of Authors and Titles by Mary June Kay (1984)
