[...] On the previous outing Barbara Fister’s Place presented a truckload of links to blogs and if you followed the earlier editions of the carnival (-> summaries) you know that a large range of topics had already been covered and a huge number of blogs that deal with crime fiction had been referred to.

Finally found a moment to read this entry – thanks for the mention! I’m pleased to see how many of us regular bloggers are also readers and recommenders.

Thanks for all of your hard work and support! I look forward to reading through all of the submissions. As you know, this carnival is featured on my blog and on Squiddo- it has provided me with lots of pleasure and introduced me to many great sites since I started blogging in September. Speaking of never sleeping, your efforts, as outlined above by BV Lawson, seem impossible in scope, yet you have done it all! Thanks for including me and the rest of us in your jam-packed schedule.

Best wishes, Jim

Let’s see — you’ve just written a book, you blogged here at the Carnival (in addition to organizing and maintaining it) and also blogged recently at Moments in Crime, you’re gearing up for your book tour at the end of this month AND you have a day job. Yet you still have time to read, too — did you clone yourself? Can you clone me, too?

Seriously, we’re proud of you! Best wishes with the tour.

Carnival Queen! I’m adding that to my CV.

Maxine, hope it didn’t sound as if I was setting you an A Level question: why do you read? Discuss. But I’m sure you’ll have wise things to say, if you’re not busy reading. (By the way, my treadmill has a book rack – I’d never get on the thing if I couldn’t bribe myself with books.)

And Kerrie – I wish I kept my new year’s resolutions as well as you do!

Hi Barbara – Just letting you know you forgot to mention Xanus III’s blog covering Martian Mystery Fiction … Otherwise, you seem to have covered pretty much everything. Cheers, Dec

Barbara,
Thank you for the very kind referral. I was sorry not to be able to offer to be involved more, but there has been quite a bit of personal turmoil during the last year for me. On times, it’s been hard keeping my blog going; on others it’s been a wonderful form of escapism and relaxation – and sometimes an opportunity for a rant or two! Reading, as always, provided another world in which to hibernate.
What a wonderful thing you’ve done with the Carnival!
Best wishes,
cfr
