1. WELCOME!
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Normally, we try to only send these newsletters two or three
times a year. But we send this special edition because we have
a VALENTINE'S DAY present for YOU! (Details below.)

You should only be receiving this if you are a member of the
Yahoo! Group. If you can't remember why you signed up for this,

2. WHAT'S NEW!
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
So much can happen in just a few weeks - right after we sent
out our newsletter in January, the company where I worked went
through a massive reorganization and I found myself among
several employees suddenly out on the street.

Erica and I appreciate your prayers. As much as I would love
to say this is me now becoming a full-time novelist (and if
that works out, I won't complain), the statistics make it
impractical for me to *expect* that. So I am looking for
work -- but also developing several new pitches for novels.

With all the changes, you can now find me online at these
new and/or updated locales:

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
As our special VALENTINE'S DAY present to YOU, we have a
brand-new, unpublished, world-premiere short story!
"Don't Fall For That Trick" is the very first mystery in
Erica's and my new husband-and-wife sleuth series
BOOKE CASES: MUSIC CITY MYSTERIES(tm).

Since you are our special friends, you get this sneak
peek before anybody else!

How this will work:

1) We'll upload the story to the message board for
a limited time.

2) After it is uploaded, you'll receive an announcement
from Yahoo! Groups.

3) You can download the pdf file and read it at your leisure.
Print it out, or read it on your computer.

4) Enjoy! (Actually, this last step is optional.
But we really do hope you like it.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Well, I think that covers it for this time. Thanks for your
friendship. Have a wonderful day - God bless!

-Chris
