Okay, it's weird, but I kinda take pride in the interests in my journal that aren't clickable -- the ones that only I have. That's why I haven't added Liavek as an interest -- laurel is the only one with it, so I wouldn't want to remove it from that place in her interest list (and besides, if you can't figure out that I'm a Liavek fan from the fact that I like Emma Bull, Will Shetterly, Kara Dalkey, Steven Brust, etc, you probably don't care, anyway).

So I was shocked to discover that I'm down to one unique interest. I still have Kara Dalkey, but someone else (chastmastr) went and added Codename Knockout (and since he also added the writer and all the characters, he's obviously a bit more obessed than I am.

So damn, I need to find another unique interest or two. But legit ones. I wanna be the cool kid who's into good stuff years before anyone else. :-)

I can see the need in the case of the cross-stitching (just to add another spelling).

Thanks for the links -- I'm not a huge fan of contemporary mysteries (although I read a few crime authors like Lansdale and Vachss), but I do like the occasional quirky one (An Instance of the Fingerpost, by Iain Pears, comes to mind).

In another small world situation, Teresa Loftin, who does the web page for Murray, is a former co-worker of mine. She's a huge mystery fan, and has done web pages for a lot of authors and cons.

I think what I like about Emerson so much is that she's very historically accurate.
