WWAR w/Misty Part 1
Show Notes

On today's episode, we welcome the wonderful Misty Night, the newest member of our club.
Misty lives in central Pennsylvania and has been writing for a long time. She has over 50 books
published in several genres. She started out writing greeting cards and then went on to write children's
books with little or no success. She began to write romance novels but soon gravitated to the world of
mysteries. She writes the Ivy Morris series as well as the Tallie Graver and her latest is the Whit and
Whiskers series (under the name Gabby Allen). Her other series include the Adventures in Ghosisitting,
Magically Suspicious Mystery, and the Kissinger Killes series.
We are thrilled to have Misty join us and look forward to visiting with her whenever she can join us.
In duscussing things our listeners might not know about us....Ann talked about her dream of becoming a
Rockette dancer. She was crushed to learn that there was a strict height limit and her own measurement
of 5'0” would not make the grade. Tracey talked about the contest she won 10 years earlier. She won the
Grand Prize from Sony Pictures contest for the movie 2012. Then Misty surprised us to find out that she
was mentored by a well-known opera singer and that she was on her way to becoming an opera singer
(with a 3-octave range).
Down to business, Tracey gave a review of the book “Coached Red Handed” by Victoria Laurie and was
published in July 2022 by Kensington Books.
With Gilley heartbroken over the collapse of his marriage, Cat has the perfect remedy—a three-week-long
getaway to Italy. But before the duo can pack their bags and sip prosecco on the sunny riviera, they first must
help a troubled client carve out a fresh start of her own. Wealthy Scarlet Rubi desperately seeks a greater
purpose and immediate distance from her toxic descendants. The urgency of the situation isn’t quite so clear
until Scarlet takes healthy steps towards progress, only to turn up dead . . .
The matriarch of a wealthy family has been murdered in her home after finding a new lease on life. Cat’s
suspicions deepen when she discovers Scarlet was set on cutting off her children and grandchildren, each
one more money-hungry and dependent on financial support than the last. As Cat and Gilley investigate a
slew of sketchy alibis and concrete motives from the corrupt Rubi clan while preparing to leave the East End
for Europe, they soon realize the question isn’t who had a deadly vendetta against Scarlet—it’s who didn’t?
This episode ran a bit long so we have decided to end this episode here and then we will finish the
episode next week.

TRIVIA:
Last week's question was:
Which mystery author wrote the book “Dinosaurs In the Attic?”
a. Craig T. Johnson
b. Ray Bradbury
c. John Bradford
d. Douglas Preston
The answer is d. Douglas Preston. Preston began his writing career at the American Museum
of Natural History in New York.From 1978 to 1985, Preston worked for the American Museum of
Natural History as a writer, editor, and manager of publications. He served as managing editor for
the journal Curator and was a columnist for Natural History magazine.[ In 1985 he published a
history of the museum, Dinosaurs In The Attic: An Excursion into the American Museum of
Natural History, which chronicled the explorers and expeditions of the museum's early days.
The editor of that book at St. Martin's Press was his future writing partner, Lincoln Child. They

soon collaborated on a thriller set in the museum titled Relic, published in 1995. It was
subsequently made into a motion picture by Paramount Pictures starring Penelope Ann Miller,
Tom Sizemore, and Linda Hunt.

This week's question is:
The author Thomas Harris gives very few interviews. But in one he described his working style
as:
a. sometimes you really have to shove and grunt and sweat.
b. Sometimes words come faster than you can write them down
c. There is no style. It is pure luck
d. There are months that I don't even try to write
Tune in next week for the answer and part 2 of What We Are Reading in November.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving to all of our American listeners.
