A little inside-baseball for ya
Laura Lippman is a mystery novelist with a series, and several standalones one of which "What the Dead Know" just broke her for the first time on the NYT Bestsellers list. I met her both years at Writers in Paradise and she so bright you can tell it without her saying a word. She is a former newspaper writer from Baltimore and is married to David Simon creator/producer of the best police show in the history of television, The Wire.
Now, go ahead and check out her blog entry for today. In case the links change, today's entry is titled "Nepotism."
