RAPSUS PLANNING HISTORICAL NOVEL SET AT EARLY PHILADELPHIA MINT

The review of "Double Daggers" prompted Ginger Rapsus to write: "I
noted with interest the comments on numismatic historical fiction.
I have outlined a novel that takes place in 1792; the hero is an
engraver at the Philadelphia Mint.  The heroine ends up being the
model for the Birch cent.  The working title is "Eagle."  I am nowhere
near finished with this story, and who knows if it will ever get
published!

"I do have high hopes for a Civil War novel I finished last September.
I entered the manuscript in the Golden Heart competition, so we shall
see."

[Best of luck to Ginger and her historical novel manuscript.  Perhaps
our readers could suggest some possible plotlines or subtexts, or point
out some interesting historical facts and personalities worthy of
consideration for the project. -Editor]
