Johnny Ostentatious--hell, I love that name. He should have a girlfriend by the name of Margo Mayhem. Or maybe Diedre Deadly. (grinning)

Hey Johnny O.
Thanks for asking! I'm always most enthusiastic about my latest, so I'd say Freezer Burn is my favorite right now, althopugh it is a series, so if you want to start at the beginning, you might want to get Body Trace. Let me know what you think!

Hello and thank you for the friend invite. I'm starting to think I'm the only person in the known universe that hasn't seen Life on Mars :) :) :)

HGi Johnny. Thanks for getting in touch. Hope that Aussie slang doesn't tie you up in knots! Good luck with your own work. If you want to get in touch, try me at: a.hyland@latrobe.edu.au
Warm regards

Adrian

Keep writing, keep putting your work out there. And good luck finding a publisher.

A Charles Williams book... Try Dead Calm. It was made into a movie a long time ago. still a very modernized version. and nicole kidmans breakthrough movie I think.

Anybody who calls himself Ostentatious has got to be on my wave length! how ya doing?
I have a wip and recently did my first draft. I found that I got bored and want to do a seat of my pants more inspired draft next. I'm going to try the fog method!

You're welcome... there are so many more but that will do for a start, right? Hope you enjoy them. Shane Maloney has had his books make into TV movies and I must confess I like them better than the books :( Also Adrian Hyland's "Diamond Dove" is making a huge splash. When do you think you may move Down Under?

Hi Johnny, have you heard of an Aussie comedian called Austen Tashious? Hilarious! Mysteries set in Sydney... let me thing: Peter Corris, Tara Moss, Kathryn Fox, Gabrielle Lord to name a few. Some set in Melbourne by Peter Temple and Kerry Greenwood may be fun too. Let me know if you'd like more information. I used to live in Sydney but have been here in Melb for almost 19 years now.

Yep, John D. Wrote some pretty good pot boilers. I still remember some of the lines. But I like Trav too.

Great with the small press....that's probably the way to go. I did and I will now go to your website.
My book, The Beatitudes, Book I in The New Orleans Trilogy, will be out in the fall and I am donating all royalties directly to the New Orleans Public Library Foundation. My blogsite www.beatitudesinneworleans.blogspot.com has excerpts, recipes, and news, and you can see the many prominent authors supporting me, such as Alafair Burke, Julie Smith, Ken Bruen, and many others. Hope you let me be your friend. Lyn Lejeune.
