Newbie Notes
Good morning, everyone! Thanks to all of you who made a "friend" request. I'm really tickled about that. Looking forward to meeting you and reading your writing.
Right now, I'm working my way through an assortment of LGBT mysteries from Amazon (my VISA hates me). Richard Stevenson, Anthony Bidulka, Mark Richard Zubro and more. I'm also reading Josh Lanyon, and I've gotten a copy of "Writing Mysteries" (ed. Sue Grafton). As soon as I find some time to really sit down and study, I'll read through the Grafton book. I know, of course, I can't walk away from that a brilliant mystery writer who need only set fingers to keys to produce an Agatha winner. (Okay, well, in bourbon-induced fantasies that might be possible, but...) I do think it's probably a good place to start. And after that? Brainstorming.
It'll be a slow process, I think, but one I'm going to enjoy.
