I read a lot of books and sometimes come across a fact or a sentence that suggests, "There's a whole other story in this! Tell it!"

Amanda and the Shinsengumi. 1868. The American Civil War had ended, but the Japanese Civil War had just begun. The Americans were more than happy to import to Japan their "leftover" warships and rifles. Which side should they sell them to, the Imperial forces, or the Tokugawa Shogunate's last rebel forces, the legendary Shinsengumi? Amanda, the female partner of a Boston shipbuilding firm, travels to Japan to decide for herself.

Don't be an "aspiring" writer. That's like being a "growing" tree. Trees just grow. Grow.
