Sisters in Crime is still working to change some of those. I write about protagonists of all genders and ethnic backgrounds at many times in history. So far nobody has questioned my right to do so.Warren Bullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07789270258599769915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-7994489656276098882011-08-26T14:23:49.311-04:002011-08-26T14:23:49.311-04:00I love the plot twist of Alix Bosco/Greg McGee.

It seems we have a hard time believing a man can think like a woman or vice versa. Yet many of us grow up surrounded by members of the opposite sex whose habits and mannerisms we can observe and interpret.Pauline Alldredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00847008019331163905noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-19427538263888687362011-08-26T07:15:58.528-04:002011-08-26T07:15:58.528-04:00I was there and I had a chance to meet some of the...I was there and I had a chance to meet some of them. I had a nice chat with the winner's dad. He said Paul's mother used to go through his books and cross out the swear words. She died within the last year. He said, "She would have been so proud." Then he excused himself so he could call his brother and tell him.Warren Bullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07789270258599769915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-57459691016597124402011-08-26T06:44:28.881-04:002011-08-26T06:44:28.881-04:00Warren, a nice report.

You often find a book on the market within weeks of terrible tragedies, and I immediately think "blood money." <br />I hope you were there in person and got to meet some of those authors.Ellis Vidlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11918353154644739285noreply@blogger.com
