Katherine Miller is my character in a series of mysteries. Six books later and Katherine asked to retire to enjoy her life. Then I was asked to produce another story. After many quarrels with Katherine, we decided to start a book. The planning don and myhealth took a nose dive and I was forced to put the story aside for a time. When I returned to writing six weeks later, Katherine was stubborn. The story had begun and I was in tune with the character but the story ended as a short story. I sent it off to my publisher with hopes she could come up with ways to make it longer. This didn't happen so a number of the short stories that started me on my writing career were added to make the story longer. The one thing I'll say is I learned something wwhile typing the stories into the manuscript. The stories were good and if the short story market hadn't gone soft, I would never have written novels. The comment from a magazine editor sent me to turn to mysteries and Murder and Mint Tea, a short story became Katherine's first adventure. So Murder and Iced Tea is her last. There will be other mysteries and also some romances to come.
