  2. Congratulations again, Art! I'm so glad that outstanding story got another nomination. (I've got a feeling it won't be the last nomination, either.)

  4. First, congrats to Art. But I have to apologize to everyone, especially Brian. I meant to put this up in my Little Big Crimes blog but got caught by the evil new rule in Blogger that they set you up in whichever blog you used most recently. Curses! Didn't mean to run over your entry, Brian.

Welcome. Please feel free to comment.

Our corporate secretary is notoriously lax when it comes to comments trapped in the spam folder. It may take Velma a few days to notice, usually after digging in a bottom drawer for a packet of seamed hose, a .38, her flask, or a cigarette.

She’s also sarcastically flip-lipped, but where else can a P.I. find a gal who can wield a candlestick phone, a typewriter, and a gat all at the same time? So bear with us, we value your comment. Once she finishes her Fatima Long Gold.
