Humor is important.
Life is far too important a thing ever to talk seriously about.
Know your audience.
The old believe everything, the middle-aged suspect everything,
the young know everything.
Experiment with new
ideas and approaches.
Consistency is the last refuge of the unimaginative.
The best fiction has
the ring of truth.
Man is least himself when he talks in his own
person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
I think writing fiction is a type of mask. Often the “truth” is
more apparent in fiction than nonfiction.
Advertise your
writing.
The only thing worse than being talked about is not
being talked about.
Now I’m taking Oscar’s
advice and am promoting my newest medical mystery,
MURDER…A WAY TO LOSE WEIGHT, by participating in a GoodReads Giveaway. You can
win a FREE copy by signing up by June 4 at:

One more piece of advice
from Oscar.
If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is
no use in reading it at all.
I think you’ll find Murder… A Way to Lose Weight can be read
on several levels (and hence several times). It’s a mystery. It’s got lots weird science tidbits (and
references at the end), which will make you think and spark your conversation at boring parties.
It addresses real problems in medical schools—scientific misconduct and hazing
of junior staff and women. These problems can affect the safety of drugs you depend on.
Here’s the blurb: Dieting is
hard. So is fitting into a new job where you aren’t wanted. In MURDER…A WAY TO LOSE WEIGHT, Dr. Linda
Almquist is trying to do both as she investigates two diet doctors who are
endangering the lives of obese participants in their current clinical trail.
When she finds one diet doctor dead, the police suspect the other diet doctor.
Then the threats against Linda begin.
