I'm new here. A young lady by the name of Krystal Waters invited me to crimespace. I write poetry, mostly freestyle and what ever comes to mind at the moment of where and what ever I'm doing. I love to write. I don't know what I would if they too the pen and note book away from all of us.
Anyway, making my rounds here and there. Stop by when you can Tasha Alexander and all your friends.
I work in a national corporate-chainstore book outlet called Waterstones (my shop was formerly Books Etc) but I've not come across any of your works before. Once I get the new stock in I'll have a rummage through your back catalogue!
Take care,
Graham

Thanks Tasha! I have a book list for September that is shaping up pretty nicely. Will add Elizabeth to it.
House is blessedly bug free and kids have enough room to whine out of my hearing. Only catch? 21 year old is having a crisis - girlfriend I think but he is really not saying. Ain't life grand?
I am just back from Provincial Parks, Great Lakes, BUGS and kids whining in a tent for days and days. I need good news --- when is your next book due out?
So glad you liked the rest of APS....the third in the series, A Fatal Waltz...is in the hands of a copyeditor even as we speak and I'm starting work on the fourth.
And I did! Also compared notes with another MPM fan friend and she loved it too.
Have you read Diana Killian's Poetic Justice series? There is more than a touch of Vicky in that heroine too. I am really glad that MPM has had an influence on other authors - I love her books and a new and fresh twist on the style is wonderful. Your book is excellent. Now get off here and write another one real fast (I am a bossy mother so get lots of practice telling people what to do - at which point most of them do exactly as they want anyway).
Am about mid-way through A Poisoned Season and very much enjoying it. I know you were on the Amelia Peabody lists so am guessing you read Elizabeth Peters -- hopefully you will not object to me feeling that Emily is a bit of a cross between Amelia and Vicky. I like her very much and find her exploits highly entertaining. Love Colin (but then since my husband is also a Colin that is almost a given just from the name) and keep seeing Colin Firth in that role. I would like to throttle her mother though. Anyway -- well done (so far anyway) yet again.
Hi Tasha,
Just talked with Marion at Sleuth of Baker Street. She has read your second book and loved it. Hopefully I will have my copy by this time next week.

My Elizabeth I book comes out Sept. 25 (based on the new Cate Blanchett movie), but the next Emily will be out summer '08........

Well done.
Elizabeth Peters has been a huge influence on me and I'm flattered beyond measure that you'd consider Emily a cross between Amelia and Vicky.
I'll be keeping fingers crossed that you like the rest of the book.....
Marion is so nice. If you have not met her, try to hook up at a conference sometime - you are fast becoming a favourite author of hers.
: )
And I like your theory about right and wrong sides of the pond.
