Let's Build a Web Page
The Waterboro Public Library, bless their hearts, maintains an Index of Maine Writers. It's a good resource, and I appreciate the fact that they do not fall into the peculiar mindset of other would-be compilers of Maine Writers, who seem to think that only books set in Maine qualify the author to be a Maine writer. Or yet the ...unsupportable reasoning undergirding the list of Maine Writers out of...UMF, was it? Where the maintainer informed me that I was not a Maine writer because I sold to publishers based in New York, and I could live in Unity until I turned blue in the face, but that would still not make me a Maine writer. Um...what?
All that aside, what I want is a list of Maine Fiction Writers. In order to qualify for a place on the listing, a writer would have to (1) live in Maine (2) have written and seen published a novel or short story. I don't care what genre it's in. I don't care where your publisher lives. No, poetry doesn't count. Poetry isn't fiction; it's poetry. No, self-pubbed doesn't count. Yep, that's arbitrary and elitist, thank you for noticing.
What I'm thinking of is:
Name
Title(s)
Publisher(s)
Genre(s)
Official Webpage
Blog if any
All of the above information to be provided by the author, because, hey, *I* don't have time to do this.
Anybody out there game to build something like this, or at least tell me why it's a Terrible Idea?

At your leisure, please do transfer it. I'll noodle at it in spare moments and will be able to see just how much of a headache it might be, in a hopefully manageable size.
