Boulder Media Women's 2007 and 2008 Titles

There’s a great group of creative media women in my area. All year long I find the group to be a fountain of collaboration, advice, experiences, and encouragement. There are graphic/website designers, technical advisers, copyeditors, authors, journalists, publishers, public relations and marketing professionals, producers, and film makers, to mention just a few of the talents in Boulder Media Women. Here’s a list of the latest and forthcoming titles produced by them. To find out more, go to their website at www.BoulderMediaWomen.com -- Rosemary

Thanks, Rosemary, for posting information about new books by Boulder Media Women. You are so right: BMW is full of smart, creative women--all working in so many different genres. I'm proud to be part of the group!

Hi Rosemary,

Thanks for collecting and posting the books by Boulder Media Women. My essay, The Biology of the Sandworm, discusses whether or not a creature like the sandworms of Dune could actually exist.
