Hi Vivian and thanks for the add. We're not THAT far from one another. I live in East Texas and I have a wonderful daughter-in-law that's from OK. She and my son have a fun rivalry over OU and Texas A&M.
Blessings,
Jeannie

Thanks for the friendship add, Vivian. I enjoy reading mysteries almost as much as I enjoy writing them. If you're looking for ideas, check out my "mysteries" reading list--then, of course, there's my own A REAL BASKET CASE, one of four books nominated for the 2007 Best First Novel Agatha Award!
