I hope you enjoy Book Mercy, Chad. I have just published my first mystery, Down Dog Diary, and am working on a second book in the series. However, the issues of book banning and censorship are dear to my heart. I have written several blog posts on the topics at www.sherry-roberts.com

I'm excited about the book I am finishing, my first mystery, and I hope the beginning of a beautiful relationship. Otherwise, just trying to pull Minnesota out of winter and into spring. I'm ready to see some flowers. Hope your writing is going well.

I doubt a computer can truly write about food. I have been interested in writers that use food central to plot. Like Graham Greene's Doctor Fischer of Geneva, where porridge is the whole meal at a party. Do you know of any books like that?
