It’s a Mystery! How many books have you Read & Reviewed?
Do you love reading mystery books? Have you ever tried to write one? It’s a bit more challenging than you might think. When I wrote The Graham Quartet and the Mysterious Strangers I had no idea what was going on! It took quite a few discussions at the supper table to get it all figured out. And even then, I wasn’t sure who were friends and who were foes. I remember sweeping the kitchen floor one evening while Mom washed the dishes and trying to figure out if a certain person was a good guy or a bad guy. If a good guy, than why is he doing __? But if he’s a bad guy . . . I’m sure you get the picture. When it was at last finished, I was happy to know who were friends and who were foes. 🙂

What books have you read from Homeschooled Authors this summer?
Kate Willis says
Dinner table conversations are the best for figuring out stories. 😉

Aren’t they? ? 🙂 Just having someone else to bounce story ideas off is helpful, but when you have more than one . . . Yeah, I think all authors need table talks. 😉

Glad you enjoyed this book, Blessing. 🙂 Yeah, I never would have guessed how difficult it could be to write a mystery until I wrote one myself.
