I, on the other hand, was anal enough to copy off each Daily
Dose into a text document, and do a bit of reformatting, if
only for my own future Reference.
Despite the fact the Procedural is not normally my first
choice when I delve/dive into the TBR stacks, this *is* a
remarkable body of work, Jim.
My tote sheet (did I miss any?) reads:
Dorothy
Uhnak
Louisa
Dixon
Anne
Wingate
Gina
Gallo
Nevada
Barr
Robert
Daley
William
Caunitz
Dan
Mahoney
Ed
Dee
Sgt
Thomas P. Connors, NYPD, and Lt. Paul Glaser, NYPD
David
Hunter
O'Neil
DeNoux
Cherokee
Paul McDonald
Hugh
Holton
Paul
Lindsay
Albert
Cornelis Baantjer
Ted
Wood
John
Galvin
Fridrikh
Neznansky
Additionally, I am curious, Jim, if these were written
specifically for Rara-Avis, or if they are extracts from a
larger Work, already written or being worked on?
Furthermore, if I were publishing a general-circulation
mystery fanzine, I'd be asking if I might publish them in a
more tangible form, for the benefit of those poor souls who
are not subscribed to this List.
In fact ... *if* you've no other plans at the moment, I'd
love the chance to reprint the pieces in my DAPA-Em apazine
-- although I'd probably split it up over two or three
issues. (It's small circulation, 40 copies for the apa,
basically; and I'd send you a text file before printing, for
tweaking...) [I should know these things, but are any Avians
-- other than Frank Denton and the omnipresent Bill Crider --
who are also in the mystery apa?]
Then again: I just (Saturday) received the first issue of the
Kate Stine-edited Mystery Scene. Perhaps she might be
interested in a compendium of your posts.... (Don't want it
to become "cozy-heavy", after all!)
In any event, Thanks for yet another reason why, even if I
don't contribute much of substance, I always enjoy my morning
cup 'o rara-avis!
