Congratulations on your story! And...Hi, Jacqueline. Congratulations on your story! And yes, I think this is my favorite of all my short stories I've written. The publisher had asked for humor, and I gave it my all. <br /><br />And Joanna, you're very sweet. You're also not the only person afraid of food (or at least my food) after reading my stories. Our friend Logan says that between "Biscuits, Carats, and Gravy" and my story from last year in which I used poison, she won't eat at my house! (Silly lady, because she still will have drinks at my house, which are just as easy to ... er ... modify.)Barb Goffmanhttp://www.barbgoffman.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7731159552335760887.post-91394308112166393772010-11-22T12:51:10.218-05:002010-11-22T12:51:10.218-05:00Barb, you are delightful.

Some years ago I wrote a Thanksgiving mystery that was a winner in a culinary mystery contest sponsored by Food Writing. I rewrote "Dead in Dinkyville" and it was published a year ago in Horizon Magazine, Canada. It was great fun. Sounds like you had a similarly good experience.Jacqueline Seewaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09177500620940251009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7731159552335760887.post-67098132098056172202010-11-22T01:43:53.937-05:002010-11-22T01:43:53.937-05:00It'll be great to meet you, Barb.

And thank you, Joanna, for arranging this my blog post. <br /><br />I know that you (and Joanna) will be attending the Malice Domestic mystery convention this spring, which will give us a chance to meet in person.

As one who started out with short stories and still writes one now and then, I love to hear of how those fun, concise mystery stories originate.Linda O.
