What does "what brings you here?" mean? The stork, they say, but that goes way, way back. Too far, no doubt.

Profile Information

Hometown:
Bozeperson, Montana
About Me:
I was gonna be a chemist, but I backslid. I became a mathematician, but I backslid. Now I write mysteries, but publishing and marketing being so disagreeable (to me, that is; somebody must like it), I'm looking into where to backslide to. Earlier incarnations were in Hayward, California, in Alton, Utah, in Madison, Wisconsin, in Rapid City, Sourh Dakota, and in Salt Lake City Utah, at first mainly by my middle name, and not in that order, with a few assignments elsewhere.
I Am A:
Reader, Writer
Website:
http://www.montanamysteries.com
Books And Authors I Like:
I don't often re-read books, but the fact that I do re-read Agatha Christie pretty well shows that I like her work. Strangely enough, I also enjoy rereading my own work. Not every writer does. (Do you?) I reckon I have too many likes to try to select further among them for presentation here.
Movies And TV Shows I Like:
We (spouse and I) have a lot of tapes and DVDs featuring Poirot, Marple (each in two incarnations), and some miscellaneous, too, e.g. the Foyle's War series. Our collection of Holmes is miniscule, because spouse hates the SOB--I don't, but who am I to decide what to do with loose change? When TV goes digital, our old eyes may settle for those tapes and CDs, plus those of Netflix.

don't visit my website, for now

my website has been hacked. So far as I actually know, visiting it may not be harmful to your computer, but the point is that i don't actually know. So don't go there until the hacking has been undone.

Hi Byron, I don't come here often - been over a year since I visited. And, yes I do re-read my novels ocassionally. Of course they have to be out a while before I do. I always see things I want to change and plan to do it when they're snapped up by the big publishers or the movies. Just wanted to say hi to you and Kay.

i think I managed to approve two comments that have been lurking unapproved for about a year. Obviously somebody has improved the responsiveness of this website. Maybe I'll visit it more often, then.

Nice day. Today several things worked. I still can't approve comments, but okay, those folks'll just have to wonder why I never approved 'em. Sorry, Ingrid and Lyn.

May, 2008. It's still true that very little here works for me. How do all the rest of you manage to tolerate occupying space on a website that doesn't behave as it says it will?

Another day when things just don't work: it seems I've acquired a number of Friends Requests, but clicking on the "see who they are" button just doesn't affect a thing. Who runs this Ning thing, and why don't they fix it?

Hey, Byron. The friend request button seems to be under the person's picture (atavar). And no, I never reread my novels -- except for publisher-mandated purposes. :)

Today on this website, nothing seems to work. I have a comment to approve, and I can't approve it. I tried to invite a friend, and I couldn't invite him. I looked for an e-acquaintance who told me she has a presence here and the search mechanism couldn't find her. Well, it isn't the end of the day yet: maybe something I haven't tried yet will work.

backslide into whatever makes you happy when you get up in the morning. I say, hey lookit, I'm alive and my feet are on the floor and I know who I am (well, to a certain extent - i am a writer after all).
My book, The Beatitudes, is a paranormal thriller set in New Orleans. It will be out in the fall and I am donating all royalties directly to the New Orleans Public Library Foundation. Libraries support the infrastructure of a great city, so I have started The Beatitudes Network to promote awareness of the importance of public libraries in NOLA.
The blogsite www.beatitudesinneworleans.blogspot.com describes the Network, has excerpts from The Beatitudes, recipes, and more. Merci mille fois. Lyn Lejeune.
Writers, please pass the word…..it’s for a good cause….don’t let the libraries of New Orleans or the US go the way of The Great Library of Alexandria. P.S. just posted an excerpt on my Crimespace page.

Welcome Byron. Quite a sense of humor going in the sidebar.
