Research from Someone Who Knows

April 27th, 2009

Lisa Gold is instructing a class in Research for Writers, still time to register if you are in the Seattle area.  Ms Gold is also the researcher that worked with Neal Stephenson on the Baroque Trilogy.  So if that is not a ringing endorsement for her class, then here is a quote from her site from the man himself…

“Ms. Gold roams at ease through the most difficult and recondite topics, like an Indiana Jones of the world of letters.” –-Neal Stephenson
And that is pre-crystal skull Indy right there!
