The Disembodied Head

You can now see a wide-ranging video interview with me on YouTube, conducted by members of the Minnesota Crime Wave, which is made up of authors Carl Brookins, Ellen Hart, and William Kent Krueger.



The interview is broken into segments. You can view the first segment (about nine minutes long) by clicking here, and you can go on to the next part of the interview (about ten minutes long) by clicking here. Or you can look for the Favorites section at my YouTube page, which is www.youtube.com/bfreemanbooks.



As readers who have gone to my events can attest, I was wearing my typical uniform that day, namely a black turtleneck. One reader watched the video and had some troubles with the contrast on her screen. The result? She said I was a talking disembodied head. Well, that seems appropriate for a crime writer, doesn't it?

Yours, Mine, and Ours

I came across an Italian verse the other day in a Christmas display: "Natale con I tuoi, Pasqua con chi vuoi." I believe it means, essentially, you spend Easter with whomever you wish, but you spend Christmas with your own. This is a season of togetherness.



Of course, Marcia and I have been accustomed to the idea that we have roots in many places. Most of my family lives far away from me, and we have friends and readers around the world -- many of whom we've never had a chance to meet. However, we are still spending Christmas with our own...because all of you are in our hearts. That means, no matter where you are, you are with us.



So as you celebrate the season with good food, good wine, and those you love, know that we are sending you our warmest wishes from the snow and cold of Minnesota. May 2011 be filled with peace and happiness!
