Great, Barb! Glad y'all found each other. Just don't believe them when they offer to make you the Microsoft of romance...they say that to everybody.

“Not dead yet!”

Ha! I wouldn't worry about that, erika-- I finally admitted that I don't and in all likelihood will never write romance, much as I might want to.

I do, however, cop to some righteous love stories. I'm good with that.

Always Anti-fascist!

Well, I'm a little confused where I fit on the genre divide myself, Barb. I mean, I like hard-boiled, but at the same time, I'm not all that comfortable with how sexist and violent the old-school stuff was. But, at the same time, the "Plumification" of the P.I. genre, for lack of a better term, is kind of alarming...I mean, I loved that series at first, but now, everyone and her sister has got a lipstick in one hand and a P.I. license in the other, and, FTR, Ms. Evanovich, it's better to stop a series before passionate readers like me say "Oh, are you still on that?" As a writer in my position, I've got no prayer of being hard-core, but I'm getting bored with the pink-tinted mysteries with no real stakes where the heroine gets saved by a dog or her grandma before nothing really dangerous happens to her in the first place.
