Hey. First off, just wish to say I am loving your Maggie Sullivan Series. Just posted my review of Don't Dare A Dame here on Goodreads. I am 76% into a Touch Of Magic and it's a real treat. My question: Do you have any plans to revisit these characters?
M. Ruth Myers
Hi, Aaron. I'm so glad you're enjoying the Maggie Sullivan series. Those characters appear in three books. A new short story featuring Maggie appears in the new anthology from Private Eye Writers of America which just came out. The title is Fifty Shades of Grey Fedora, and the 15 other writers include some of the biggest names in the genre.
As to A Touch of Magic, back when it was originally published by Dell, I intended it as a series. In fact the British publisher contracted for two books, but when a multinational group bought Dell, the editor who'd signed me for ATOM got axed and her replacement wasn't remotely interested in the first book, let alone a series. Ah, the joys of writing!
Thanks for writing.

Really loved As Pretty Does. I’m already looking forward to the next one! There will be another one, won’t there? But you may want to find a better proofreader. Eleanor is referred to as Evelyn a couple of times, and Smith is referred to as Fisher once. Also, “dual” is used when the word you intended was “duel”.

Hi! Thoroughly enjoyed your guest blog at Max Everhart's website. Also, congratulations on the Shamus Award! Question(s): Do you outline (if so, to what extent), or are you, like me, a "panster?" Do you plan to continue writing more Maggie Sullivan mysteries? I think you have an enjoyable and winning series with Maggie. Thanks! --Michael
