Hey! I want to read For Keeps next! I also want to read Mayra's Dark Lullaby. $%#%#@*!!! So many great books, so little time to read them all. The stack on my desk is high as a slush pile.
I have read the book. It is the third book in the Gus LeGarde series of mystery novels, which really gave me a lot of fun. But I think I love his book "Double Forti" better
Your book, Aaron, is moving toward the top of my pile and I am already salivating. I want it to be fresh in my mind when I host you. Thanks for this great interview Mayra! It is a delight to hear Aaron talk of his creative process and of his books.
Hey, Southern Writer! So nice to see you here! I'm afraid For Keeps will be a while off in the future, maybe two years out. Oh well, such is the process! Thank you! And Mayra's books all sound luscious!
Hey, Doug. Email me and tell me what you thought about the books. Glad you liked Double Forte'! I adore hearing from my readers. www.legardemysteries.com
Beryl, I'm hoping you enjoy Tremolo, and can't wait to hear what you think of it when your turn comes to host the virtual tour. ;o)




Great interview questions. Aaron I love your work. Every book of yours that I have read transports me into that time and place. Your characters are friends of mine now. :)
