HI, Gemma, thanks for the invite. Looks like you hae some interesing stuff!

Hi Gemma:
It is nice to be your friend. Thanks for the invite.

Thanks for asking me, Gemma. Your books look interesting.

Gemma,

Very interested in your books....I working on a Romance-suspense project.

Joe

Hi Gemma,

Thanks for the invitation. Your covers look really nice.

Thanks for the invitation. Good luck with your series; I shall have to seek out your books

Thank you so much for the invite. I love your name.
Your book covers are fabulous and will seek them out to read.
Marcia

Gemma's books are well worth seeking out! I have really enjoyed them - only if you are in Canada and looking in Chapters for some reason Gemma is not in the mystery section. My husband found her in Literature. Being slightly odd, he picked up the first book to read on vacation and yes he also enjoyed it a lot.

Hi, she writes cozy mysteries.

Awe, thanks, Lynne! Funny that you found them in literature. I've seen my Heels books in both the "mystery" and "romance" sections here in Cali. I guess it just depends on the store. or the mood the stacker is in that day. :)

Hi Gemma. OSF is what brought me here to Ashland from LA in '04, but unfortunately I ran into an impenetrable wall of nepotism, and was not asked back. Ah, well, life goes on. In the meantime, my first PI novel has been written, and 'tis time to move on to other things.

Gemma, I noticed you mentioned you may want to pick my brain on some point someday. Feel free to do just that anytime.
Dave

My feet hurt looking at those heels, must play for some really fun action. Nice to meet you;-) Sheri

Hi. I think I'm getting the knack of this site. This is great, I just joined like today, and you're the second to say "welcome aboard." Thank you. I just read about your books, and want to add my congratulations. It looks like your books are doing wonderful. Keep it up.
Again, thank you for the welcome. I recently retired from working full-time as a staff officer in the Israeli Prison service. My book, Israel Behind Bars is being worked over for a script. And I'm looking for someone to collaborate to publish a true crime story I have all the archived material for. If anyone knows anyone, I'd really appreciate networking. The people on this site all look so nice. As long as no one is a criminal, I'll feel safe. (Only kidding, guys.) Best. Rabbi Jacobs

Can maddie design high fashion high heels for women with the gout? Now there is a killer challenge.
Congrats on your success. What fun!

Thanks for the invite. Don't be shy about joining in on the "Golden Oldie Mysteries" on my blog!

Hi Gemma, thank you for the invite and congratulations on the USA Network series! Sounds like a blast.

Hi Gemma, thanks for the invite--USA/TV deal all sounds very exciting. Best of luck with it!

Hi Gemma, Your series looks great - I'm going to have a look out for it, especially since I have a friend who is a shoeaholic. My husband and I are planning a trip to San Francisco next year after we survive another Canadian winter.
Brenda

Thanks for invite, Gemma! I love high heels...

Thanks for inviting me, Gemma.

Best of luck with your third book!

hi gemma, i am really into reading at the moment and your books sound really fun but i dont seem to be able to find them over here in england anywhere so am not sure where i can get one from, do you have any suggestions.

Thanks for the invite, Gemma. I hope the development deal with USA works out! That would really be a kick!

Since joining CrimeSpace yesterday, I've pressed so many "Reply" buttons, I literally have no idea where any of my messages are going. I just hope I'm not sending out my credit card number.

Anyhow, thank you for the encouragement and kind words.

My main reason for joining CrimeSpace was to do exactly this: To learn.

Sounds like your books are doing well. Thank G-d, I've seen a lot of success publishing books on practical Jewish law.

Anything you care to share about what's happening with your books would be appreciated.

Best of continued luck.

Love your killerfiction.net site.
I just finished Spying in High Heels, and I've ordered your Killer, and Undercover books. Can't wait to read them.
Jamie

Thank you for the post. Yes, the group on this site does, indeed, look like a very nice, and approachable bunch. Your books look like they're moving along very well. I'd appreciate updates! Best.

Hey Gemma,
I didn't make the finalists. But I pretty much figured I was a long shot. I entered at the last minute, to fill the Chick Thrill categorie. I'm really hoping to get some good feedback, since I now live in the middle of nowhere, and don't have a critique group.
By the way, I'm a regular at your Killer Fiction blog. It's great for lol moments.
Jamie

Oh yay, I’m so glad you’re enjoying our Killer Fiction blog! I’m having a blast with it myself, so it’s cool that someone else is enjoying our antics. I was so worried we’d just be talking to ourselves! It’s really nice to know someone else out there is reading it.

I just pray none of my ex-boyfriends ever does. Lol! I may start getting hate mail. ;)

Hi Gemma - nice to meet you! Thanks for the add. Jools

Hi Gemma, thanks for the invite. Congrats on making it to the smallscreen!

Hi Gemma
Thanks for the invite. I love the titles of your books - and congratulations on the TV series.

Hey! If a author writes a novel in the forest, and nobody reads it, did it make a sound?
I'm newt, slithering from the shallow end of the gene pool, into the open ocean. Sharks are likely to eat me before the salt water kills me, but who wants a quiet life?

Hi, Gemma. Thanks for the friendly request. Here's pulp in your eye!

Finally managed to find your books here in Denmark. Looking forward to reading them

Hi Gemma - thanks for the invite. A shoe designer sleuth? Now that I HAVE to read!

Being a free-thinker used to be great, until the MBAs moved in and said "No more free thinking. We must charge for it now."
"But that isn't the meaning of 'free thinking!'" the author protested.
"Don't try to pull a zoigma on me!" and off they carted the trussed and shckled writer, to his isolation cell.
A few blinks into the future...
Welcome to the place of mankind'a last best hope for freedom to write crime fiction and reality!

Am getting the second and third books of your series when I am next at Sleuth (on the 26th for a Lyn Hamilton signing) and am very excited about it all. They get books in way before Chapter's seems to and always save my list and call when it is ready - Great Store! Anyway, got the call yesterday that both books are there and waiting.

Gemma,
Thank the Internet Gods for a place where you can be a free thinker who kills people (who need killing) for free, and get off Scot Free, with no penalty for early withdrawal!

It's a deal. Either way I will say I loved them. But I am pretty sure I will enjoy them so doubt I will have to risk fire and brimstone to spare your feelings.

You sound just like me on that. If you weren't so blonde I might think you were a cousin or something. My family is all redheads or dark brown --- well except for my youngest son who is about the same shade you are .... hum....

Hi Gemma,
Thanks for the advice at the GRW conference. I have a request to send in my first three chapters...Heres the dilemma...Are my first three good enough...LOL

Thanks Again

Joe

Hi Gemma,

Just finished your second and third books - good stuff. I really enjoyed both. The second is too funny on the whole subject matter, and also something that hits close to home. The third was just a really a good read. Just as well that I could not relate to too much in it though. Not sure I want to understand Jasmine's life.

That just itches for a snide comment (viruses and Jasmine's life etc) but I am sick today and cannot think of anything worthy. Yes, I really did enjoy them. So much so that I am in a bit of a slump today on reading - between you and Hailey Lind I just don't feel like attacking anything but really fun reads! However - I have a new Rankin and must get to that.

Hi, Jemma. I hope the writers strike isn't gumming things up too badly with your TV show. Good luck.

Gemma,
Saw an Article in the RWA that mentioned you.
I sent off a proposal to the agent I met at the GRW convention. My first.
Hope your well

Joe

Please let me know how you are doing with USA my agent tells me they have shown interest in an unpublished MS of mine.

Hi, Gemma. Are things moving again on the TV show now that the writers strike is over?

I hope you have a merry Christmas and happy holiday season :) Sheri

Early Endorsements for “A Circle of Souls”

Linda Fairstein, NYT Bestselling Author: "A fascinating debut - this novel takes the reader to the darkest places in the human soul, from a writer with the authenticity to lead us there. A stunning thriller and an important read."

Judge Judy Sheindlin, star of the Judge Judy Show: "The seminal work of this fine author kept me glued to my chair until the adventure was over and the mystery solved. A great read!"

Book Synopsis:

The sleepy town of Newbury, Connecticut, is shocked when a little girl is found brutally murdered. The town s top detective, perplexed by a complete lack of leads, calls in FBI agent Leia Bines, an expert in cases involving children.

Meanwhile, Dr. Peter Gram, a psychiatrist at Newbury s hospital, searches desperately for the cause of seven-year-old Naya Hastings devastating nightmares. Afraid that she might hurt herself in the midst of a torturous episode, Naya s parents have turned to the bright young doctor as their only hope.

The situations confronting Leia and Peter converge when Naya begins drawing chilling images of murder after being bombarded by the disturbing images in her dreams. Amazingly, her sketches are the only clues to the crime that has panicked Newbury residents. Against her better judgment, Leia explores the clues in Naya s crude drawings, only to set off an alarming chain of events.
In this stunning psychological thriller, innocence gives way to evil, and trust lies forgotten in a web of deceit, fear, and murder.
