But the best news is that in October 2023, I published my first short story that I collaborated with my good friend, Kristopher Zgorski (BOLO BOOKS). “Ticket To Ride” is featured in the Happiness is a Warm Gun anthology: Crime Fiction Inspired by the songs of The Beatles. We are happy with the responses we received and THANK YOU to all those who read our story. It means the world to us.

It was a wonderful year — I really appreciate your hosting the Rev and Rye Mysteries, but mostly all the recommendations. I have read so many books because you piqued my interest. My tendency would have been to go back to ‘old favorite authors,’ and you helped me discover so many more.
