As someone who is trying to sell my first crime manuscript to a publisher I should know. Today they admit quite openly that they are not interested in Danish debut novels, and they don´t even return the manuscript unless you are willing to pay for it so ... <br /><br />I am sure things will be better in a year or two, however, and then you should certainly have a fair chance again.Dorte Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535044092722418173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-35862018487436398832009-08-31T16:30:15.004+01:002009-08-31T16:30:15.004+01:00Many thanks for the nice review (and thanks as eve...Many thanks for the nice review (and thanks as ever to Karen and Maxine). With regard to your opening comments, I'd rather hoped a Danish publisher might be interested - particularly since this and subsequent novels all have Danish references and/or characters - see for example the nod in Peter Hoeg's direction on page 65. But so far unfortunately not ...<br /><br />Len<br /><br />(L C Tyler)Len Tylerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998938558543525457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-74692660099509460382009-08-29T17:01:05.163+01:002009-08-29T17:01:05.163+01:00Beth; well, we are quite good at taking turns, tem...Beth; well, we are quite good at taking turns, tempting each other, aren´t we?

So this book is certainly more than just a laugh. <br /><br />Really, Bernadette? I think I´d better add a link to Maxine´s review then. As Peter indicates, this is a cozy of a certain class.Dorte Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535044092722418173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-61054852505586908062009-08-29T09:16:10.252+01:002009-08-29T09:16:10.252+01:00Definitely adding this one to the wishlist thanks ...Definitely adding this one to the wishlist thanks Dorte (never heard of it before)Bernadettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07641617609801125707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-64199384100823202042009-08-28T22:51:42.243+01:002009-08-28T22:51:42.243+01:00The novel also has some surprisingly pensive and d...The novel also has some surprisingly pensive and downbeat notes for a book by a self-described author of comic cozies.<br /> ==============<br /> Detectives Beyond Borders<br />"Because Murder Is More Fun Away From Home"<br /> <a href="http://www.detectivesbeyondborders.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">http://detectivesbeyondborders.blogspot.com/</a>Peter Rozovskyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09977933481463759162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-13786256191688438592009-08-28T14:47:02.559+01:002009-08-28T14:47:02.559+01:00Elizabeth, I am sure you´d enjoy this one.

I am trying to stick to my plan, reading three library books and then a Scandinavian novel that has just come out in Britain. But that cover is soooo tempting ;)Dorte Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535044092722418173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-42280735040430985302009-08-28T14:41:01.688+01:002009-08-28T14:41:01.688+01:00Sounds like a winner!
