    Hi:

    I thought you might be interested in a contest. It’s wacky, creative and ‘killer’ fun. ‘Create a Corpse’ Contest lets you name a character in my suspense novel Divine Justice. Of course, you guessed it—the character dies

    For contest details, just scroll over the following URL, copy and paste into your browser. This is a great contest for avid readers who’d like to be part of the process. I look forward to receiving your entries. :)

    Hi Mike:

    I am always up for sharing my marketing tips. I was in PA recently for a writers conference. I was on 2 panels; one on defining success, the other on what works in marketing books.

    You might want to check out my site and blog. I have some articles there that you might find helpful. I have more to add when I get some time. :)

    One of my goals as an author is to never forget my beginnings and to help other authors when possible.

    I look forward to hearing from you.

    Hello! Thought you might be interested in a new group here on Shelfari called Publishing: http://www.shelfari.com/groups/10943/about

    It's all about the business side of publishing (and all the craziness that entails). Be among the first to join and feel free to start a discussion.

    O.K., I give. Is this a picture of a mystery author or are you the mystery author. Do you write mysteries, or is it a mystery what you write. If you do write, or have written, will you ever tell us what it is? Welcome to Shelfari, hope you enjoy the possibilities here.
