Research Books
Those pages are intended to share those books I’ve found useful in the course of writing my novels and short stories. Writers most often need details about daily life and mentalities, whereas many history books focus on the history of succession and what monarch did what for the country–which is interesting but not a writer’s primary area of interest.
My areas of interest are mosly Aztec Mexico and Imperial China, and this is where you’ll find the most books. I’ve tried to include history books as well as literature from the time period–which I always think is very reflective of the mindset. The rating in stars is over five, and reflects mainly how much I’ve found myself turning to the book as I writing or researching for future writing.
If you have any recommendations to make on resources, I would love to hear them–contact me and tell me which books you love and how you use them.
Are you looking for information related to Aztec culture, to use in your fiction? Contact me, and I’ll do my best to give you some pointers.
Do you have a research book related to those areas of interest that you want to recommend? Contact me.
