Thanks, folks!
ReplyDelete"In three media" That's quite apt, Todd, thanks for including my post as well as for the latter comment on the sf book.
ReplyDeleteThanks again for hosting while Patti is jetting around the country, Todd! You're really getting good at this!
ReplyDeleteWell, thanks, George. I'm not sure I'm improving, but hope at least for no erosion.
ReplyDeleteI am sorry I am so late with this. My review for FFB is on MURDER NEW YORK STYLE at http://kevintipplescorner.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteKevin
Not at all, Kevin. Link going up now.
ReplyDeletePrashant...you're quite welcome...thanks for engaging!
Thank you, Todd. And thank you for stepping in for Patti.
ReplyDeleteThanks for including me in this roundup Todd - much appreciated.
ReplyDeleteGentlemen...you're acting as if I'm doing you the favor, rather than the other way around. At worst, a mutual favor. Thank you.
