On the other side of any story therein lies an author; and for many of us these unseen people are much of an enigma. Merely extrodinary people with a gift to draw you into another world. I have often picked up a book and have been completely transported into these other states, and when the book was finished became even more interested in the characters, which has lead me to the authors commentary. There in the commentary one can see how the process of the book evolved and became, how it was born from someones inner thoughts and research.
Today, we are not only able to be engaged in literature, but engaged with the author. When you are lucky enough to find that one of your favorite authors is blogging, you can derive even more from their literary work. And this is the case for my husband and I, we can find David King, a nationally and internationally published author of "Finding Atlantis", blogging now. It is a rare opportunity to be able to read and keep in touch with what is going on in his world. I highly encourage anyone who has a favorite writer to research and see if they provide an online journal these days. You can find David King at: www.DavidKingOnline.blogspot.com
