Vicki Leon - Research Tip of the Day

I met Vicki Leon at a Writer's Retreat in Santa Barbara a few years ago and have seen her give workshops on Writing Nonfiction. Not only is she prolific and funny, she is also very knowledgeable about research.

Tracy Barrett - Research Tip of the Day

Tracy Barrett is one prolific author and a champion of the SCBWI.  Tracy is what I'd like to call a brainy-act, smarter than smart. She teaches Italian, Women's Studies, English and Humanities at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. Tracy is generous, dedicated and full of helpful information on research. I asked Tracy Barrett to give us a Research Tip of the Day.
