AUTHOR  NameDee Ann Palmer From:Southern California, United States "I Love a Mystery" was my favorite childhood radio show. It came on after I was in bed at night, adding to the delicious intrigue and scariness of it. After the Sisters in Crime/LA meetings, my husband and I browse Canterbury Records in Pasadena. He finds all kinds of tapes of his favorite old radio shows: I have found none of mine. Although I'm basically a romance writer whose stories often include elements of suspense, mystery and thriller, those early experiences with "I Love a Mystery" led me to test the waters in pure murder and mystery.

Sunday, May 20, 2007 DARRELL JAMES INTERVIEW Darrell James is an intriguing person, and why and how he writes what he does is fascinating. I hope you'll take time to read his interview on my web site at http://www.deeannpalmer.com. Watch this blog for a video from author Marilyn Meredith. I haven't seen it, so that'll be fun. Marilyn discovered no one can contact me from my blog. You can always comment here by clicking on Comment at the end of a blog. Of course I always see those. But now I'll always sign off with a contact email address for your convenience. I had a fabulous Mother's Day weekend. Hubbie and I spent all day Saturday at a community college in a nearby town for a high school jazz festival. Our oldest son, a trumpeter, was the guest artist. We heard him solo with the college evening band and then with their number one day band. He also held a trumpet master class. We heard some of the advanced high school bands, and then our son's wife's novice band competed. She's a student teacher and began the first jazz band the high school she's in has ever had. She warned us they were beginners, and had only played for four months, so not to expect too much. They were very good! Came in second in their division. We visited with a man who's a good friend of our son. We hadn't seen him for years. He's now the director of jazz studies at the University of Tennessee in Memphis and had come out to be an adjudicator and to see his parents for Mother's Day. It was great to talk to him again. Our son took him out to dinner and then came to our house to spend the night. The next day his brother and his wife arrived, and we had a wonderful time. Played Wheel of Fortune, were taken out to dinner by my husband, then came back home for cake and ice cream. It' was so great to catch up on all their news. My kitchen TV had died, and hubbie had given me a new one. For years I've wanted cable on this set so I can watch favorite shows while cooking dinner. Otherwise, I don't have time to watch. Our youngest son showed us how we could hook it up. It's terrific. Have a great week. Remember to read about Darrell James (Body Count: A Killer Collection) and watch for Marilyn Meredith's video.
