I've loved reading mysteries, ever since I picked up my first Nancy Drew book.
I devoured all the Dick Francis books I could find at my high school library. Then, in college I discovered Gothic romances, with the drafty old mansions by the sea and husbands trying to convince unsuspecting wives that they were going crazy.
After that I discovered Mary Higgins Clark, Mignon C. Eberhardt, Sidney Sheldon and so many others. I particularly enjoy psychological suspense, rather than police procedurals and puzzle mysteries. I like to lose myself in a book without having to figure it out.
It was no surprise that somewhere along the line I decided to write one. I didn't succumb immediately, but finally broke down later in life. My first mystery, Two Wrongs, about a young man who mistakenly fingers the wrong person for his sister's murder and the consequences that resulted, was published in February, 2006 by Hard Shell Word Factory and is still available.
Since I've grown older, I've started another mystery about aging, which I hope to finish soon.
Do you read mysteries? What kind do you like? Do you also write them?

Some of my favorites mysteries, still, to this day are Nancy Drew's! I love them. I'll pick one up every once in a while now...they're quick to get through and provide a great 'blast from the past' kind of feeling!
Yep, we all were hooked by Nancy Drew to begin with.
I wonder how much the author for Nancy Drew made. She has so many fans.
