My last review fits right into your plans.
Put me in.

Timothy J. Anderson is not even published yet his book will be called 'Graced by Amazing' but everyone can read his writing on his website.
Including the short story 'Graced by Amazing'.

A wonderful Mid-west Truck Driving author if I ever read one.

Book and movie have been ordered from the library. I'll put in lots of hyperlinks to other Wisconsin writers I've reviewed.

I'll do Edward Harris Heth's Any Number Can Play. Now I gotta get it from the library, read it and review it. It was also made into a movie with Clark Gable and Audrey Totter in the 1940s.

hehe, that is a coincidence that you were debating Midwest states. In my literature class the professor gave us a blank map of the US and we all debated on Midwest states. Yeah, it basically depends on where you live. :0) Anyway, I hope you decide to join the w/o! Thanks for reading about it!

Funny, my hubby-to-be and I were just debating about what states composed the "Midwest" a few days ago.. It really depends upon where you live.. If you're from the South, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois and Indiana are considered "North", but if you live in any of those states, you know that you're from the Midwest..

I can't guarantee participation because I honestly don't know where the authors of most of the books that I own come from.. I guess I'll have to do some research and get back to you.. All that I can really say is it's too bad that Maine isn't in the Midwest.. :)

Take Care,

I'm glad you clarified the midwestern states. I really didn't know which ones were considered midwestern. In this area, those are all considered "Northern."

Yeah, North Dakota is practically Canada. Takes about an hour to get to the border and then about an hour to get to Winnepeg. It is a nice jaunt! :0)
