Being neither an oceanographer nor, archaeologist, I must dig deep into resources in the local library, in my own extensive library, and on the Internet. Each character in my books has a photograph, a character sheet that reminds me what he or she carries in his pockets or purse, what type of personality he or she exhibits. Of course, there is the outline, an important part of writing a book, which must be detailed and thorough. Even then, after countless hours of preparation, I discover something I need to research in order to write about it. I love every moment of the process and hope you enjoy each book in this exciting series.
