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!

AMERICAN DAD... ON ICE!

On Sunday's episode of FOX's American Dad (yes, I know it's Wednesday, but I have a husband, small children, a day job, a new book due by the end of the year, and two blogs; I'm lucky if I catch a television show during its regular season, much less the day it airs), Stan Smith revealed his deep, dark, wintertime secret -- he is a closet (in his case it's a dungeon) figure skater.

Along the way, Stan name-checks Anita Hartshorn and Frank Sweiding and a RBO edge.

Someone on the American Dad staff is a skating fan.

    So Alina, how about an update on Anita & Frank? I remember clearly their great program about Columbus discovering the new world. Others have skated to that music, but no one has done it as well!

    Do you mean the 1492 music? I liked Elvis' version of that, as well.

    As for Anita and Frank -- I am on the case!

    Thanks for writing!
