Janet and Janet--together at last!

I know you've all been wondering when Janet Halpin and Janet Evanovich would wind up in the same publication--well, the time has come.

Sort of.

Back in August, I answered a call from the New England chapter of Sisters in Crime. I'm a member of this awesome mystery writers' group, and my chapter was awarded a grant to produce a calendar for the national organization's 20th anniversary. A lot of great writers stepped up to be "calendar girls," striking "Clue"-like poses in the morgue, a cemetery, etc.

And then there's me, Ms. April, the rope-wielding psychopath hiding in the shadows on the far right.

Some of the other dames saying cheese for shutterbug Roger Leo are Sarah Stewart Taylor, Tess Gerritsen, Linda Barnes, Roberta Isleib, that most fatale of femmes, Dana Cameron, and oh yeah, that other Janet. She's one of the biker chicks on the cover!

The calendar is now available and you can order a whole bunch of Janets at http://www.sincne.org/calendar.html

Ciao! Janet - No power in the 'verse can stop me!

Big damn debut!

Good news everyone!

My short story, "Miss Danforth's Big Adventure," makes its big damn debut today (Friday the 13th) at The Wild Rose Press in the English Tea Rose Line.
