I’ll be attending the Left Coast Conference in Seattle from February 1-4, 2007.
If you’re going, too, please don’t be shy – say hello if you see me! In fact, I’ve attached a newer one with me and my son up in Canada so you’ll recognize me. Love to shake hands and chat with any and all.
Also, I’ll be at the Seattle Mystery Bookshop on Saturday (the 3rd) from 2 PM to 4 PM with about a dozen other authors. I’ll be signing copies of Under A Raging Moon and possibly The EX Factor.
This will be my first conference, so I’m looking forward to it.

Well, folks, bad news. The anthology, My Little Book of the Dead is...well, dead. At least for me.
I make it a policy not to air out business issues in public, so let me give you my boilerplate description:
“There were complications in the publication process that led me to decide to remove my piece(s) from this project.”
“No Worse Curse” and “Forever Love” (a poem) are now free agents again. I’ll begin submitting them elswhere immediately.
Two other authors also pulled their work. By my math, this accounts for six of the eleven pieces. The editor may choose to go forward with the project, replacing the six that were pulled with six new pieces. If so, I wish them good luck.
For anyone else, the object lesson here is, I suppose, that a book is never published until you’re holding it in your hands. And that you should never want to be published so bad that you don’t remember to make all of your decisions from a business standpoint.
Meanwhile...Map of Murder will be released on February 15th!

There is another favorable review for Under A Raging Moon at Front Street Reviews. Check it out!
The most recent issue of Mysterical-E features a piece on my by Christine Verstraete. She focuses on the By the Chimney with Care in this story-style interview. It’s well done.
Also, a review of Under A Raging Moon appears in this issue, reviewed by Vero G. Caravette. The review is a favorable one.
You can check both of these out and a round of great mystery stories as well right here!

I’m happy to say that in addition to the Spokane City and Spokane County Library systems, my novel Under A Raging Moon is now available at the Stevens County Library District.
Stevens County is just one county to the north of Spokane.
