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!

CHRISTOPHER BOWMAN DEAD

I've written about Chris here, here, and here.

Details about his death, here.

Damn.

I worked with Chris as a researcher when he and Judy Blumberg did commentary for ESPN in 1999. We spent a couple of days together locked in a small room (I was pregnant at the time, so the room felt really, really small).

He was charming and personable and uncontrolable. Exactly the same way he was on the ice.

I'd give him research, he'd nod, pretend to read it, then toss it aside and say whatever the heck he wanted. Sometimes it was great. Sometimes it made no sense.

Exactly the same way he was on the ice.
