Romance and Mystery Novels

by Alina Adams

There are changes afoot!

After four years of "Where Are They Now... on Ice," the December 2007 publication of my fifth and final figure skating mystery, "Skate Crime," as well as the New York Times best-selling success of my soap opera tie-in novels, "Oakdale Confidential" and "Jonathan's Story," has prompted me to take this blog in -- as they love to say on daytime TV -- a different direction.

In addition to continuing the updates and exclusive interviews with former national and international skating champions (and there are still the archives; just type your favorite skater's name into the search box below), I am expanding to include irreverent commentary on soaps, primetime television, books, writing for a living, kids, husbands, friends and anything else that might cross my mind on a given day.

Thanks for visiting!

MICHELLE KWAN AND THE FIGURE SKATING MYSTERY

It's not a laughing matter -- especially to Kwan and Emily Hughes -- but this headline: What will Kwan do? Skating fans love a good mystery, just made me think of the Encyclopedia Brown book series. (Well, obviously it made me think of my own mystery series, as well, but even I wouldn't be that blatant about my otherwise unabashedly blatant self-promotion).

I've written about my feelings re: Kwan and the Olympics before, and they haven't changed.

Though, at the moment, the person I really feel for is Emily. How nerve-racking must this be for her! (Train, don't train, pack, don't pack, make plans with friends for the next few weeks, take a midnight flight to Italy... heavy stuff for a teen).

    Ms. Hughes new she was an alternate if any one of the 3 couldn't make the Olympics, so don't go feeling too sorry for her. What if one of the other two couldn't be there for some reason or other?? She herself said she was training for World anyway..
