Hi Meridith. I was lured from LA in '04 to work at OSF, but unfortunately ran into an impenetrable wall of nepotism and was not asked back. Ah, well, life goes on, and I stayed in Ashland. A good choice, methinks.
Hi Meredith, the more I think about the advertising world-cum-mystery-writing, the more I'm intrigued. You may find, as I have, that it's only after I've left a field of work, that l think of the dark things that could happen in it. I spent 10 years in the California water industry before writing Thicker Than Blood; it was fifteen years after working as a medical writer in LA that I wrote Lifeblood; and Listen to the Mockingbird wasn't written until years after I had left New Mexico. I think I was just too close to those areas before. Regardless, your serial murders in New York, and a mystery set in a small town in West Virginia sound really interesting. Best of luck.
Hello, Meredith and thank you very much for the invite.
This isn't a comment about your looks, but I didn't recognize you without Lawrence Light or "The Ladykiller" cover, as that was my sole reference of you up until this point. I'm behind on reading of the reviews in "Mystery Scene" and I only glanced through that section.
Hi, Meredith. Thanks for the invite. I,too, used to be in the ad biz, but went into the doc business when I was asked to do a "polish" on a show and loved it. Thanks again.
Thanks Meredith, and congratulations on the success of all the book tours. You sound like you are in 7th heaven. Is LADYKILLER your first joint venture with Larry Light? And boxing lessons??? Wow, what a gal - reminds me of Ali's daughter and "Dancing With the Stars."
Hi Meredith, I thought I'd stop by now that I have some clue how Crimespace works. I, too, have be an ad writer. Oddly it was one of the most creative things I ever did. Is that what your fiction is about? The Madison Ave. world? The ideas for two of my novels came from work I did as a journalist in LA.
Hi, Meredith, thanks for the invite! The book sounds terrific! I couldn't make it to Thrillerfest this year, but I'll be at Bouchercon if you're trekking to Alaska.
I'd love to hear about what you wrote for Mad magazine. From a young age, it taught me to question authority, nurture skepticism, and develop a healthy sense of the absurd--all important life lessons. :)
