Welcome to the office!
If you were looking for the boss, needless to say Pippa is out of the office on a case at the moment. I'm Andi and I look after the office while the boss is out, Perry Mason had his Della Street, Philippa has me.
The boss and I are great devotees of lesbian detective novels, those tales of mystery and detection where the main protagonist is a lesbian. However there seem to be few places on the internet which discuss this topic: hence her feeling that we needed a website.
It's been ages since we've done any updates to the site, lots of other things taking up our time. Well of course the boss has been out sleuthing but I've been doing mundane stuff! But there's now a review of a new book and the boss has told me to make damn sure I get on with useful stuff like doing book reviews. Perry Mason never nagged Della like this.....
One thing I have noticed is that the flow of new books onto the market seems to have slowed down of late, but there are new authors out there waiting to be read, as well as old friends producing new work; there's a new Ellen Hart for example. Also I've had a communication from top author Janet McClellan who tells me that real life is getting in the way of writing novels, which may be happening to others too. I'd love there to be new books by Kate Allen, and if anybody knows what's happened to her can they let us know? Anyway, Christmas is coming and books are on my wish list.
Like all the other good fictional detectives we spend much of our time sitting around the office waiting for clients to turn up with a juicy case for us (which we will end up solving for nothing). Therefore the boss suggested I could do something useful and make a start on it while she popped out for coffee, donuts, and other assorted detective fiction cliches.
Please check back at regular intervals to see how we are progressing, and also please send me your ideas and comments. We don't have a counter on the bottom of the page to distract you, so it will also give us an idea of how many, if any, visitors we are getting!
