http://romanceresearch.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
A journal documenting my academic research into Genre Romance Novels. Monday, 15 September 2008. Intertextuality and the Vampire Romance. Vampire Romances are a fascinating aspect of the Romance Genre. They have mysterious heroes that are tortured by a traumatic past. As Anne Stuart explains, “At the heart of the vampire myth is a demon lover who is both elegant and deadly, a creature whose savagery is all the more shocking when taken with his beauty and style.” [i]. A popular motif in. In each of the pa...

Researching the Romance: Begining My Independent Study
http://romanceresearch.blogspot.com/2008/09/begining-my-independent-study.html
A journal documenting my academic research into Genre Romance Novels. Wednesday, 3 September 2008. Begining My Independent Study. As I begin on my independent study this semester, I'm struggling with two questions. How do you define the romance novel? I think this is important because it is very hard to study something if you don't know what it is. So, this first week I'm reading Jennifer Crusie's essays, A Natural History of the Romance Novel.

http://romanceresearch.blogspot.com/2008/11/abstract-for-pca-confrence.html
A journal documenting my academic research into Genre Romance Novels. Tuesday, 18 November 2008. Abstract for PCA Confrence. Well, after many revisions I e-mailed my abstract for my paper for the PCA confrence. The due date got extended to the 30th, so I had a bit more time to tweak it, but I wanted to get it in. No word back, but I don't expect to get any for a while. Though I do wish someone had sent me a confirmation e-mail. Here it is, in all it's brevity:. However, the vampire in paranormal romance ...

Researching the Romance: March 2008
http://romanceresearch.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html
A journal documenting my academic research into Genre Romance Novels. Monday, 31 March 2008. Thoughts on Louisa May Alcott. The Subjugation of Males in Louisa May Alcott’s Thrillers. In Behind a Mask. By Louisa May Alcott, gender roles are reversed as males become objects of lust and women become the people in power. Unlike the more common male protagonist-centered stories, Alcott has women as the main character of her fiction. The story is about Pauline, who has been deceived and rejected by Gilbert.

I Just Finished Reading...: Band of Brothers by Steven Ambrose, a guest review by oldest
http://donttalkjustread.blogspot.com/2010/08/band-of-brothers-by-steven-ambrose.html
Friday, August 27, 2010. Band of Brothers by Steven Ambrose, a guest review by oldest. When I mentioned on my personal blog that one of the assignments my oldest had to do over the summer for his AP US History class was to write a book review, Leslie. Asked if I would post the review when he was done. So, bearing in mind that there were some requirements for content, (and that he wrote it in about 15 minutes, LOL), here is the review for Band of Brothers. Written by my eldest. The majority of the book ex...

I Just Finished Reading...: Rhett Butler's People by Donald McCaig
http://donttalkjustread.blogspot.com/2008/01/rhett-butlers-people-by-donald-mccaig.html
Wednesday, January 09, 2008. Rhett Butler's People by Donald McCaig. The Authorized Novel Based on Margaret Mitchell's Gone With the Wind. Not long ago, I posted over on Let's Gab about Rhett Butler being one of my favorite heroes. Here's what I said about him: "Smooth talking, slick. Yet vulnerable, too. He loves Scarlett, and makes no excuses for her. He accepts her for who she is. Even loves her for it. That’s seductive.". When Rhett is forced to kill his childhood best friend in order to save him fro...
