In my Border's there aren't much inspirational novels. That is something to look into. <br />Thanks everyone for the comments.

I thought I was writing western romances but my publisher and other (Crossings bookclub) calls them Frontier Romances. I've also seen the term Prairie Romances used. Westerns are still around but they've taken on a new identity.Margaret Brownleyhttp://www.margaretbrownley.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8156523731154520312.post-49848848823139017282009-08-30T18:05:50.910-04:002009-08-30T18:05:50.910-04:00I have a few westerns by Linda Howard and Elizabet...I have a few westerns by Linda Howard and Elizabeth Lowell. I like Westerns, but I don't seem to buy them often and I don't know why. But I agree that they will never be gone. Of course, that doesn't help you when they are in a drought. I wonder if, when they are published, they get shorted on publicity efforts by publishers (just guessing). Have you tried the epubs. They seem more open to niche markets.Carly Carsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18236823971323039071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8156523731154520312.post-19210043315252007462009-08-29T21:42:03.456-04:002009-08-29T21:42:03.456-04:00I'm sure westerns will be back.

Mine are set in the gold rush era, but my heros are of the western type. Like country music, the western will always be around because it's part of our heritage.<br /><br />You go girl, and keep plugging away on our cowboys. They are such vibrant heros. Stacey Kayne is one of my favorites, but I am slightly biased as she is one of my daughters-of-my-heart and such a great western writer.Paisley Kirkpatrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06401039126457210324noreply@blogger.com
