Karen, I'm so glad you made it to a SinC event; wish you'd told me you were going because I may have managed to find some energy for it. Maybe it was better I rested though. Did you have fun? Looked at your blog and it sounded a very interesting night.
Hi Karen, was interested to your yours and others comments re the Tuesday Book Club on Crime. Your website looks great. Thanks for sending me a message. Bronwyn
Hi back Karen, so nice to hear from you. Translating is so much fun. For me it's one of the most intimate ways to get to know a book. There are some wonderful crime novels published in Germany which just deserve to come out in English, too.
All the best, Lisa
Thanks Karen. I wanted to have a look at Aust Crime as well. They were both recommended to me. It's great to be able to correspond with other writers and fans of the crime genre.
Thanks for your welcome, thank goodness only two of the dogs in my picture are ours and the other three a nephews. I can't wait to check out this site.
Hi Karen.
Thanks for your kind invite. I'm so looking forward to exploring what this site can offer, though it's all a bit confusing at the moment!
My late wife's sister lives in Melbourne - Endeavour Hills I think the district is called. I'm glad you like Scottish crime fiction. A writer called Catriona McPherson lives not too far away from me.

Hi Karen. Thanks for the welcome. I think S&S are distributing AMSTERDAM in Australia in June. If you do have chance to have a read, let me know what you think.
Cheers

Thanks for your welcome. I see that you like Reginald Hill too. I'm still trying to find some of his books but I have several on my shelf.
Your bio has already given me several new(to me) writers to look out for.
Your dogs look really lovelly.

I keep thinking that hardback books will eventually become obsolete for fiction, except for small print runs for libraries only. And the new premium mass market paperbacks are blurring the line between mass market and trade paperbacks. We could eventually get to a one-size-fits-all trade paperback for fiction ... with limited sales ... because everyone has a Kindle-type reader.

Just saying Hi, because you're online.
I read an article recently that said that reading and book buying in Australia was in decline, but it sounds like you're making up for it.
How are things in sunny Oz? I thought I'd drop by to let you know as promised that my new novel 'A Study in Red - The secret Journal of Jack the Ripper' is now available in paperback from Amazon at http://www.amazon.co.uk/Study-Red-Secret-Journal-Ripper/dp/1554045274/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1202482660&sr=1-1
