9/01/05

5:32 a.m. Well, today I go to Bouchercon, a mystery writer's convention that is taking place in Chicago this year. It will be great meeting many of my writer friends from the internet.

Today I am also training two new investigators on their first cases. Which means that my phone will probably be ringing off the hook. Blah.

It'll be a jam-packed couple of days. I am really looking forward to it.

The HR guy that sat in on my interview with the Medical Examiner seems to want me to do PI work for the county. And a friend of mine has a sister who is a lawyer that wants me to do PI work for her. If I started the Polly PI Detective Agency, I would have a ready-made clientelle.

why not do it?

I second Jane's question. It's not often that you get a chance to do something on your own with ready-made customers.

Can you put on a Humphrey Bogart accent and wear a trenchcoat?

Depending on how much they offer you, definitely think about it!

You can get Christobol to write your adventures ala Snake. Heck, what am I thinking, you can write your own adventures just like you've been doing all along.
