A Journey Through Winesburg Ohio - Beth Moroney

 Loneliness. Isolation. Alienation. These words describe one of humanity’s base problems. Sherwood Anderson’s works reflect his concerns over the human-built lives of loneliness. Through his short stories, he either subtley or openly attacks individual isolation as a result of human falsehoods.

 		 I became interested in the process one might have to go through in order to make a creative idea turn into a published and popular novel. Through my research, I found the actual steps that were needed to publish a book were very rigorous. Many may not realize all of the hard work, writing, re-writing and various other people necessary to make your idea into the next bestseller.
How To Publish A Book – Mallory Kaufman
 
Michale Crichton is well known for his scientific thrillers, especially those made into movies like Jurassic Park. His novels incorporate not only a plethora of scientific material, but he also has his own style of presenting his storyline. That is why I compared many of his novels and broke down the writing style of Michael Crichton.
Michael Crichton – Yunes Doleh		 How can the United States end the Iraqi war, solve the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, deal with nuclear Iran, manage Russia and the former Soviet Union, and compete with China while managing its own internal issues. Anatol Lieven and John Hulsman explore these issues and turn to ethical realism for the solution. I did a report on the foreign policy suggested by the book Ethical Realism. This book was written by two experts from opposite political camps reaching a conclusion that will be acceptable to as many sides of the issues as possible.
