Re: Re: BigV
Ha! Yes, guess I didn't miss anything. I never read Stephen King either, no offence about that. Hitchcock though, I did enjoy his movies.

Re:
LOL. Thanks! Count yourself lucky. She wasn't a bad writer per se, it just drove me nuts that she never once would lay down any clues for her readers to follow. I hate to promote my own stuff (not really), but in 'The Murders on Staines Road,' I lay in all the clues a reader would need to finish a story and think, he did tell me that clue about six times... good job! To chronically pull that last minute entrance of the bad guy stuff ruins it for me.
Love him or hate him, Stephen King used to lay in his clues all along the way IF you were paying attention.

You'd have been better of if you never read any of her work...

Re: I like the joke - in fact I've lived the joke...
Ah yes. I've got eight computers that I work with doing my video broadcasting work with in two different offices here and a single one upstairs so I can do things up there should I need to do so. Computers are a great help, but they are like a retarded squirrel, a real pain in the backside some days.
Christie drove me insane. It still hasn't wore off.
Thank you.

Also agree with your critique of Ms. Cristie's writing.

Good luck on your writing. You are a busy human. It is beautiful here today too. Tomorrow will be in the 50s. I plan to take a country drive with my best guy on lemonade lane, otherwise known as route 50. It is 32 miles of scenic roadways that meander from outside of Pittsburgh to the middle of nowhere. The road less travelled is always my go to place when recharging is needed.
