Rick Polad Having other people love my stories - and seeing my books on my shelf!

Rick Polad Book # 4 in the series - Spencer looks into a missing boy that leads him to Riverview amusement park.
Rick Polad An idea will pop into my head at odd times. Then I rush to the computer. Most times I just sit down and start typing - sometimes it takes off and sometimes it doesn't.
Rick Polad The ideas for the next book in the series come while I'm writing the current one - thankfully! The fourth idea didn't come until late in the third book and I was worried!
