    You never know who you're gonna run into in cyberspace. Hope all is well.

    Hi Deb,

    I've had Deadly Ink Bookmarked for a long time. I'm going to peruse it some more...
  • Brian Kavanagh

    Hello Deb, good to meet up.
    Cheers,
    Brian
  • Brian Kavanagh

    Hi Deb, wow! That's terrific. Many thanks and I hope you enjoy CAPABLE OF MURDER as much as I did writing it. It was intended as a one off originally but Belinda and the other characters keep at me to continue with more - so I did!
    Thanks again, and enjoy.
    Cheers,
    Brian

    Hello DD,

    Nice to meet. Thanks for dropping by.

    Slan, Pat.
  • Lois Reibach

    Thanks for the invite. I'll have to check out Deadly Ink.

    Hi Deb,
    I'm so pleased to meet you. I have wanted to go to the Deadly Ink conference but it never worked out. I hear it's an excellent one. I lived for several years between Philadelphia and Bethlehem, so New Jersey was next door. Certainly I've never seen a river more beautiful than the Delaware. Of course any river in New Mexico, where I live now, is regarded as a state treasure.

    HI, Dead, er Deadly, um (darn), Deb, yeah, that's it.

    I went to Malice the last 2 years but not this year because I did LCC instead. I've only been doing one con a year cuz of 2 kids in college, but next year I'm doing Malice and Bcon.
  • Bill Kirton

    Hi DD,
    (The abbreviation of your name is an acknowledgement of your own sparing use of words in youyr profile. Admirable.) Thanks for the invitation.
  • Penny Rudolph

    Hi Deb,
    As to the landscape, I think it was one of New Mexico Territory's early governors who wrote to the federal government requesting assistance, "Send me some men to match my mountains!" I have to admit that once in a while I do miss being close to New York and DC, not to mention the Delaware River. But New Mexico, at least Albuquerque and points north, is anything but hot. Rarely much over 90 mid summer, and some snow every winter. Last year, 4 ft of snow and twice we were snowed-in 3 days. (That's not typical.)
  • Penny Rudolph

    Well, the winters usually are milder than the last one. It always snows, but there's so much sunshine it melts the next day. The weather is due to the altitude, which is about the same as Denver---a mile high. We try to keep the climate a secret.
  • Wilfred Bereswill

    Thanks for the add, Deb.
  • Bill Crowe

    Cute moniker. We'll talk some more.
  • Allan E. Ansorge

    Hey Deb!

    So nice to see you--and I'm very flattered to be invited to visit. We share the same nightstand reading pile, I see!

    Congratulations on your wonderful work--and I'm eager to get involved. Boston is not far from New Jersey, of course. Let me know whatever I can do!

    Hope to chat with you soon..

  • Gayle Wigglesworth

    Hi Deb, I'd be proud to be your friend. I know about the Deadly Ink Conftest and the Press. Keep up the good work.
  • L.J. Sellers

    Thanks for the invite. Reading all those short stories must be a blast. (Judging them is a little harder, I'm sure.)
  • Douglas Quinn

    Thanks for adding me to your friend's list. Hope you will find the time, if you already haven't to look at my profile page and see what I'm doing. Have three mystery/suspense novels published and working on the fourth now.
  • Loretta Wheeler

    Thank you for adding me to your friend's list Deb, I look forward to getting to know you better:)

  • Candace Irvin

    Hi, Deb. Thanks for the invite. I love your list of authors. :)

  • Betty Gordon

    Hi, Deb. Thanks for the invitation. I, too, like your list of authors -- particularly Troy Cook. I met Troy at Bucheron in 2006 and was so impressed with his willingness to help an unpublished (at that time) author.

    The mystery world is full of wonders, isnt' it?
  • Jim Gracie

    Thanks for the invite to be your friend. It would be an honour to accept. Being Scottish, some of the names on the list of your favourite authors are unknown to me as yet, as I don't believe they are published on this side of the pond. But I'll certainly look out for them. It's always nice to be given new talent that you can seek out.
  • Chris Ewan

    Hi Deb. Scary name you have there! Thanks for the invite
    Cheers
    Chris
  • Betty Gordon

    Deb, thanks for your interest. Writing this work was really cathartic as I left law school after a year and a half to pursue visual art and writing.
    My best, Betty
  • Karen Allingham

    Hi Deb, nice to meet you. Thanks for adding me as a friend. I will have to check out your deadlyink website, it sounds fascinating!
  • Craig McDonald

    Thank you so much for the invite, Deb. Looking over your biographical information to the left, your plate sounds very very full...

    There's more to Amanda than meets the eye. In fact, the whole book has that theme going for it. Re my novel, The Catalan Gambit, published in 2004, I was pleasently surprised when someone did a review of it over 3 1/2 years after it was published. If you have time, check it out at www.bookreviewsbycrystal.blogspot.com. What is the publishing house you're affilated with doing these days?
  • Neil White

    Thanks for the invite, Deb. You have the best sounding hometown on here!
  • Patrick Balester

    Hi Deb,

    Your website sounds pretty interesting, I'll have to check it out. Pleased to meet you. Any alligators in Jersey?
  • Patrick Balester

    Thankd Deb, glad you liked Chapter one. I enjoyed browsing around your website, particularly checking out your contests. I think I have a short story laying around that I may be able to clean up & submit before Saturday's deadline. Better go look for it.
