Books and SACO

I joined a Meetup book group and only attended one meeting. I really enjoyed it, and it was great motivation to read. I'm not sure about going during the warm months because I'll more likely be in Harmony on Sunday afternoons. Meanwhile, I'm quite determined to finish The Brothers Karamazov before picking up another thing. I've gotten into the habit of watching TV when I'm home alone in the evening, and I'd like to replace that with reading, writing, and doing crafty things.

I got a contract from World War II magazine for the SACO story and filed a first draft, but I haven't heard anything yet from the editor. I'll give her a poke this week.

Doing the research made me realize what a rich and complex subject it is. I'm wondering if it's a viable project for a book, and if I could possibly make any money writing it.

  1. Linda: MY uncle was the personnel office of SACO, so I thoroughly appreciated your article in WWII magazine. I have all of his China photographs and memorabilia, as well as his SACO medal- which was awarded by the Taiwanese government. I'd love to exchange info of you want.
