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!

METULLA MISHEGAS

Those who read this blog regularly know that I've written in the past about Israeli skaters, especially Misha Shmerkin, and Israel's only regulation ice-rink in Metulla.

According to the September 27 Jerusalem Post:

Two major facilities, the heated swimming pool and, more significantly, the main skating rink itself, were still closed last week, even though the pool opened in time for holiday crowds to use over the Rosh Hashana weekend.... The greatest impact of the closure has been on the Israel Ice Skating Federation, which handles all of the competitive figure skating and speed skating. In order for athletes to continue their training, the IISF was forced to spend a significant amount of its funding on sending skaters to various training camps overseas.
