Hometown:

Alabama-bred, living in Delaware for the time being

About Me:

I'm on extended leave from academia while I raise my little kids. I write fiction when I have the time and inclination. Still getting used to not living in the South, being in my 40s, staying at home, living on one income, and motherhood. Seems like all these things happened at once. Two elderly Italian Greyhounds add to the chaos of our household.

Well, this here party looks to be the encouragement I need to get back to work on my fiction. Right after I read up on what everybody's doing...

Also, Arrested Development? I was actually mildly clinically depressed when Fox dropped it, Showtime flirted with picking it up, but then the writer decided he didn't want to write it anymore.

Never has there been a more clever, less-watched, show on television. Typical American viewers. Always viewing the wrong stuff...

It's not like they "get away"--they run into the same people in the grocery store down there as they do up here! I will look into your doggie mystery! We so love all the sighthound breeds.

At 12:05am on March 30, 2007, Evelyn David said…: Hi - Thanks for the welcome! You live in Delaware now?? I've rented at Rehoboth for years! Love the bookstore on Rehoboth Avenue - great mystery section.
And for a quick, hopefully graceful segue :-)... speaking about dogs - please visit my web site, www.evelyndavid.com, for a sneak peek of my mystery, "Murder Off the Books," and some delightful photos of Whiskey, the four-footed pal of the hero. "Murder Off the Books" has a story to "die for," characters you'll love, humor to make you laugh out loud, and an adorable and adored Irish Wolfhound.
Thanks for the welcome! Evelyn

At 9:22am on March 24, 2007, Mary L. Wheeling said…: Brandt and Cyndy, I'm looking forward to seeing what Crimespace is going to become. So far, it's going great guns.

Cyndy, Alabamians can be delightful people. When they don't have their heads you-know-where.

At 5:35am on March 24, 2007, Cyndy Salzmann said…: Hi Mary, Thanks for the friend add. Looking forward to getting to know you. BTW -- I just spoke in Alabama recently and just LOVED the warmth of the people down there. Cyndy
