The plot of Death Lives Across The Hall, for example, came from one particularly nasty conflict I had with a neighbor (I freely admit that I never have been and never will be a good apartment dweller.) Something I said in passing about the neighbor was taken to be threatening (it was absolutely NOT intended to be so.) I later said to my wife, "You realize if anything DOES happen to her, though, I'll be suspect number one?" And there was the germ of the idea for Death Lives Across The Hall.

Also, there's the mystery of how I constantly write up very detailed grocery lists...and then forget to bring them to the grocery store. If anyone can solve that for me, I'd really appreciate it.(less)

There's a children's mystery story I've got rolling around in my head, so I'm going to revisit some of the classics (Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, Three Investigators) for research. I'm willing to take suggestions as well. (less)

And the Books Just Keep on Comin'...

I guess I can call it a trend now. One book takes longer than I planned and the next one snaps together in short order. DEATH, YOU JABRONI took a year and a half to complete, being published six months later than my "new book every summer" schedule. And now, the next Joe Davis book will be ready in a few months, possibly coming out earlier in the year than any of the other books. I guess there's a Read more of this blog post »
