Monday Musings \\ Treasure Hunting--HELP WANTED!



If you're a fantasy or sci-fi writer, then what I'm going to say next you're probably going to totally identify with.
Writing a book without supernatural forces--like, just fiction-- is really. really. darn. hard.




This is a HUGE SHOUT OUT FOR HELP--If you couldn't tell. Here's the skinny:
I'm writing a fiction book. Like, it's just fiction. Like... I actually have to put historical and factual stuff in it. Which means--*gasp*--research!
Anyways, it's in the treasure-hunt genre. And as I have not read much treasure-hunting books and only seen a few movies, I need suggestions.

Any suggestions would be really appreciated! Movies, books, documentaries, anything. :) So do a girl a favor and leave a comment!

You guys rock!

  1. Well.... there are the National Treasure movies........................................buuuuuuttt.........I would be very surprised if you have not seen those yet. And there are the Spy Kids movies... they have a lot of cool gadgets, and device in there...but you've probably seen those to. And i sure you have read WAYYYYYY more fiction books than I have. so I dont think I can give you any help there.....sorry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im def. not a expert with fiction books, I just thought that I would write somthing (howbeit pretty lame)
    hope you find what you are looking for, I'm sure the book will come through with FLYING colors.
