The Deadly Duo: March 2009
http://thedeadlyduo.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 26, 2009. In the Bible you have many examples of romantic heroes in the Old Testament: Samson and Delilah—he embodies male strength and its weaknesses; David, the epic hero of the Jews, who shows not only great strength of character but also great weakness (are we seeing a pattern here? After all, he’s got to woo the heroine. I wanted not only a romantic hero, but a little of the suffering servant (what did I tell ya about stealing from the best? Posted by Karen Syed. Simple question, yes...

The Deadly Duo: "Public Enemies" Showcases Chicago
http://thedeadlyduo.blogspot.com/2009/07/public-enemies-showcases-chicago.html
Wednesday, July 8, 2009. Public Enemies" Showcases Chicago. I usually wait until feature films are available on DVD before watching them, but with "Public Enemies," I made an exception and saw this new release in a theater last week. My eagerness stemmed from two interests: Chicago history in general and the life and times of John Dillinger in particular. This bank robber/desperado was dubbed "Public Enemy No. 1" by the FBI in the 1930s. Call it film noir, Chicago-style. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The Deadly Duo: October 2008
http://thedeadlyduo.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, October 26, 2008. A Room of my Own. The reigning advice of the day for writers is to have a space where you can write everyday. I used to be a binge writer, taking a vacation day from work to write all day. In a few weeks I’d repeat the process. Subsequent binges required I re-read the pages from the previous binge. The process became more re-reading to get the threads firmly in my hands and less writing. I have a corner window the view mostly filled with a sturdy crab apple tree. I have my r...

Tuesday, March 29, 2011. Day 121: Overworked, Overcommitted, and Overjoyed. I only have three more treatments left. My last round of chemotherapy is scheduled for May 5th. I can't wait to be finished! Of course, that is just the beginning of the end of my treatment. In June, I plan to have major surgery (tentatively scheduled for June 10th) to reduce my risk of getting breast cancer again. And, I am considering having another surgery in a year or so to reduce my risk of getting ovarian cancer. In 2007, a...

Saturday, July 11, 2009. HEART TO HAND- BACK AT YA! A friend of mine made a lovely quilt for me to use for the prize in a drawing at my book launch of The Innkeeper in April.

Julie said that when she read that she hoped whoever won the quilt would re-gift it to me. White House Chef mysteries. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Karen L. Syed.

http://thedeadlyduo.blogspot.com/2009/05/farewell-old-radio-friend.html
Wednesday, May 27, 2009. FAREWELL OLD (RADIO) FRIEND. As one who spends a considerable amount of time behind the wheel, I have developeed close relationships with a few radio stations. One of them died last week. I particularly enjoyed the station's morning drive-time program, anchored by the great jazz pianist Ramsey Lewis, who has been a major factor in the jazz world for nearly a half century. Many will remember the PBS network "Legends of Jazz" series he hosted a few years ago. Right, and I probably ...

Coauthors Cynthia Hand, Brodi Ashton, and Jodi Meadows have created a one-of-a-kind fantasy in the tradition of The Princess Bride.

My Lady Jane. Presents a very loosely hist...
