Some are good to read any time, some I regret reading at night (LOL)<br /><br />kaye.killgore@comcast.netKaye Killgorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00162169343863584020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-44405557239460975582013-12-18T14:34:50.342-05:002013-12-18T14:34:50.342-05:00Kay Kendall here, replying:

I"m copying here what our Linda Rodriguez wrote on the Gang's FB page--make it easy in this busy season....Verrrry interesting...<br />Linda Rodriguez-- Kay, great post--and so true! I'm actually still a poet as well as a mystery writer, writing and publishing both, and I agree with everything you said. Literary writers do much more backbiting, badmouthing, and hierarchical stuff than mystery writers, and poets are the worst of all. My husband, who's a literary publisher for his day job, loves to attend the mystery conventions with me because their atmosphere is so congenial and welcoming in comparison to literary ones.The Stiletto Ganghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01667670723330755598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-69368967468600234922013-12-18T14:32:25.435-05:002013-12-18T14:32:25.435-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.The Stiletto Ganghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01667670723330755598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-3285861025621259682013-12-18T14:02:47.831-05:002013-12-18T14:02:47.831-05:00Kay, maybe I've lead a charmed life, but I'...Kay, maybe I've lead a charmed life, but I've always had great experiences with writers. I've attended workshops led by writers in big name conferences (Romance Writers of America) and little venues (South Coast Writers Conference held in Gold Beach, Oregon) and I've always found support and encouragement, along with a wealth of knowledge and tips. I am a member of a couple Goodreads groups that have lots of writers, and despite that forum's potential for so-called 'bad behavior', I've made a lot of good 'virtual' friends. I have met big name authors like Lisa Jackson, Nora Roberts, and Debbie Macomber, and they are wonderful people. I don't have as much experience with mystery writers, as of yet, but I can now anticipate a wonderful community here, too. Indeed, we should all support one another. It is a big world, with a large audience for a wide range of books. I'm happy to 'play' with everyone. :-)Kristi Cramerhttp://www.kristicramerbooks.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-44374257294865786992013-12-18T12:44:18.069-05:002013-12-18T12:44:18.069-05:00What a lovely way to put that, Marilyn.

And I dare say (not trying to be sacrilegious but thinking mostly of the Old Testament here) that you find lots of extremely dramatic stories in both places.kkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02296326994943617709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1025201337316610324.post-4533954947196875872013-12-18T12:17:09.263-05:002013-12-18T12:17:09.263-05:00Mysteries are all I read besides the Bible.Mysteries are all I read besides the Bible.Marilyn Meredith a.k.a.
