Apologies to my loyal readers (the few that there are - thank you for your support) for the lateness of this post. I had stuff together but couldn't get my act together to get the post up yesterday. Still here are some links of interest for your weekend reading.
First Person: how Jacqueline Winspear became a famous mystery writer by breaking all the rules.
