  1. Here's mine, Todd:

    Artists, Models and Murder by Tedd Steele.

    If nothing else, the cover is to die for. No pun intended.

  4. Todd, as always, thanks for the work of gathering, sorting and posting FFB. No one realizes how much work it is until it's been done. Walk in the moccasins, and all that.

  5. Well, thank you, Rick...I find the only real problem it poses me is on a day like today, under time crunches on a variety of levels (most of which, such as a housemate with the flu and the shirttail end of a blizzard passing through I didn't quite expect), that it always manages to take a little longer than I expect it to...and I can't ever spend as much time as I'd like responding to all the entries.

  7. Thank you, Neer. Hope even such a late placement drives a little traffic your way.
