Ever wonder if you have what it takes to be a mystery writer? I've devised a little test.
• You may be a mystery writer if you see a hat in the bushes and wonder where the body is.
• You may be a mystery writer if, at a dinner party, you’ve demonstrated the difference between high velocity and low velocity blood spatter.
• You may be a mystery writer if you’ve asked your child, spouse or friend to lay down and play dead just to see how a body looks from above.
• You may be a mystery writer if you ever sat through a meeting sketching ways to get your boss’s body as well hidden as Jimmy Hoffa.
• You may be a mystery writer if you pass a scaffold being built and stop to take notes just in case you need to hang someone someday.
Any other "dead" giveaways?

You may be a mystery writer if you look over into your neighbors' yard after the gardeners have been digging there and wonder who you can bury--fictionally, of course.
You may be a mystery writer if you walk into a grocery store and look around for the placement of the security cameras.
I like those!
How about this: You may be a mystery reader if you've figured out a w ay to do away with your boss.
Love this! I already pass the test!

You may be a mystery writer if you look at a store that never seems to have any customers when you go by, and figure it must be a money laundering operation for the "mob". I guess I aspire to writing pulp fiction.
All right, Brenda, look forward to reading your stuff!
Right on, Kate!
