Great to hear from someone writing in this genre! I agree about “stop in the middle”—especially as I get older and find myself standing in rooms wondering why I’m there, I’m reluctant to leave a scene before it’s completely down, tho still imperfect.

I was about to say the same thing, Marion. I can't imagine stopping in the middle of the scene.

Hi Alice, thank you for sharing your ideas and experiences. I'm curious about the idea of hiring a publicist. Like you, I am published traditionally, but I've never hired a publicist to do additional marketing. Does your publicist have a speciality in crime writing or is she a generalist that could also do publicity for a children's picture book writer? Is there a blog or resource you could direct me to about hiring a publicist? Thanks so much.
