It is amazing how some things just go straight to our nervous system and lock us in. Robert, you obviously tapped into some wavelength of artistic contact with the pack. That feeling just leaps out of your words and taps us with that sensation. Eagerly await reading your next entries.Matthew S.

(I treasure that one, kinda in Frank's sidemouth to Sammy Cahn). As for the gin or scotch (single malt), you'll have to ask Anthony Venutolo there comin' up from Bukowski's Basement. He's not too far outta Hoboken at some Joisey exit, but he keeps our gang's glasses tipped off with top shelf stuff, kinda like his writing.<br /><br />I see, natch, that you're charmin' quite a few of the BIJOU regulars. Authors Seana Grahm and Julie Lewthwaite/Morgan who know their way around a crime scene or three are flirting their professionalism like crazy. Hell, I'm goin' over to Jools to watch some of her flicks and kick'back with these other RAT PACK REVUE shows we got to screen for you.<br /><br />Sean Patrick Reardon and Paul Brazill get gritty and swing noir like tomorrow's dying sometimes, RJR -- Matter of fact, Mr Brazill, over there in Poland and London is kinda responsible for nudgin' me up to the front row when you did your interview gig at Barnes & BeNobled. The rest, as they say - is history.<br /><br />But with your writing mystery, man oh man - that's a lot of history. I'm putting the whole RatPack Mystery set on its own shelf to make way for some other Randisi tomes. See what you got us started on -- sheeeesh.<br /><br />~ Absolutely*KateKate Pilarcik ~ absolutelyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12430278736281847787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6243178661707887834.post-23774178379307093442011-02-23T14:10:25.041-05:002011-02-23T14:10:25.041-05:00Naturally, I got grin when you said you liked Dean...Naturally, I got grin when you said you liked Dean best.

Those book titles are irresistible, as is the whole premise of the series. Very cool. Great fun. And murderous!

I truly can't wait to dive into your books -- what a great idea for a series. Am I breaking the 7th writing commandment? 'Thou Shalt Not Covet Another Scribe's idea?'<br /><br />Seriously, tho, these fictional mash-ups bring me back to when I worked at B&N and a book I saw there called "The Murder of Frank Sinatra" (or something like that - hey, it was a long time ago) that caught my eye.<br /><br />In any case, I hope you stick around to see what we cooked up for ya, pallie...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11413377601369107260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6243178661707887834.post-962374186768008402011-02-22T23:34:08.930-05:002011-02-22T23:34:08.930-05:00Nice icebreaker, Mr. Randisi.
