Figure Skating is a cutthroat world. Just ask Rebecca "Bex" Levy, figure-skating researcher for the 24/7 network. In just one season, she's seen her share of meltdowns, bitter rivalries, and spoiled ice princesses. no one has to draw Bex a figure eight to prove that murder is a small price to pay for a gold medal. Let the games begin...MURDER ON ICE...
I get bored easily.
I started out writing romance ("The Fictitious Marquis," "Thieves at Heart," "Annie's Wild Ride," "When a Man Loves a Woman"), briefly dabbled in non-fiction ("Inside Figure Skating," "Sarah Hughes: Skating to the Stars), moved on to mysteries ("Murder on Ice," "On Thin Ice," "Axel of Evil," "Death Drop," "Skate Crime") and tried my hand at soap-opera tie-ins ("Oakdale Confidential," "Jonathan's Story," "The Man From Oakdale").
Now, what's really firing up my imagination is enhanced e-books; e-books with videos as part of the story.
My first effort is "Skate Crime: Multimedia." I took an excerpt from my final Figure Skating Mystery, and added professional videos by The Ice Theatre of New York. It's part mystery, part romance, part book, part movie, and all Storytelling for the 21st Century.
I have no idea what I'm doing exactly. It's not like I have a blueprint to follow, or even anyone who's created something like it before to emulate. But, I can confidently say... I'm not bored. (Yet.)
