- About Me:
- I'm addicted to reading mysteries and to talking about them with my pals at 4MA. I published my first mystery (On Edge) in 2002 and my second, In the Wind, in 2008 - not a sequel, but the start of a new series, fingers crossed.
- I Am A:
- Reader, Writer, Librarian

- Books And Authors I Like:

- The Wire
Homicide
Brazil

putting away the scissors and paste
I am trying to streamline my life a bit, so instead of trying to occasionally post to my blog here, I'm using the RSS feed gadget on my member page to feed items from my main blog. That means this is the last of me you'll see in the blog feed section of Crimespace's front page. (Hurrah! they all cried.)
Thanks to Daniel for pointing out how to do this in the Crimespace FAQ.

- Hi Barbara.
I didn´t know you also wrote crime fiction. I just "Amazoned" On Edge. It sounds really promising though I can be a real chicken when it comes to crime against children :)
Good luck with your new one.

L.J. Sellers said… - So if thrillers outsell literary fiction, then clearly that's what readers prefer. Yet, newspaper reviewers seem to cover a much higher ratio of literary novels to thrillers. Doesn't seem quite right.

- Hi Barbara - Crazy School is GREAT! My husband and I both loved it. PS I picked up Homicide 69 on your recommendation. I think we share reading tastes. Lately I've been reading Daniel Woodrell - what are you up to?
