Proposal For Article

Greetings! A local publication has a call out for creative magazine submissions. Since I am a mystery writer, I am considering submitting a proposal for a series about mysteries that have occurred in our area. Haunted houses (and other structures), suspicious deaths, disappearances, UFO sightings...anything along those lines. I would write about mysterious happenings and invite readers to send in clues or any background information they may have. Also, readers could submit instances that they know of to see if they can get more information, or even have the mystery solved. What do you think of this idea? Any suggestions to improve the concept? Janet

Hello world!

Posted on  
Greetings! Most of you know me (if you know me at all) as Principal at Winters Advertising & Public Relations. I have worn that hat since 1986. Well, I’m on to a new venture now as an author. I’m a mystery writer, which should not surprise anyone. I have loved mysteries since I discovered Trixie Belden at age ten. Trixie also introduced me to horseback riding, which is a passion I carry on to this day. From Trixie, I moved on to Agatha Christie, Rex Stout and Dorothy L. Sayers. As a matter of fact, Dorothy’s Lord Peter Wimsy was such an influence that I named my first horse “Wimsy”, and subsequently my horse “Denver” after the Duke of Denver, Lord Peter’s hapless brother. I’m calling the blog “Get A Clue” which was also the theme of the first website I designed for my agency. The graphics all centered around the infamous game. I finally took the plunge and penned my first novel “Murder at Morgan House.” I am now on a quest for publication. I will consider any and all offers!

P.S. I will dress this up as we go along
