About Me:
Author of :
Police Procedure and Investigation, A Guide For Writers
and
Everything Kids: I Want To Be A Police Officer

Here's what Jeffery Deaver, Tess Gerritsen, and J.A. Jance had to say about my book.

"A masterpiece . . . Police Procedure and Investigation offers everything, I mean everything, an author--novelist or nonfiction--needs to know about law enforcement: from police headquarters and laboratories to crime scenes to courthouses to jails. And Author Lee Lofland pulls off another coup--he's managed to gives us this encyclopedia of information in a style that's crisp, concise and damn fun to read. "

-- Jeffery Deaver, author of The Bone Collector and The Sleeping Doll


"This book belongs in the library of every crime writer! More than merely a reference book for writers, POLICE PROCEDURE AND INVESTIGATION is also lively and entertaining, a fascinating inside look at law enforcement, told by a police professional with a writer's eye for detail. "

-- Tess Gerritsen, author of THE MEPHISTO CLUB


"Police Procedure & Investigation is an invaluable tool for writers of mystery fiction."

-- J.A. Jance, NY Times bestselling author of the J.P. Beaumont series, Joanna Brady series, and the Ali Reynolds series.

Lee,
How's the recovery from surgery coming? Hadn't heard from you in a while. Just wondered how you were getting along.

Yes, Lee, the Pikes Peak Conference where you appeared last year was the first one I missed in 10 years (!) because it was the same weekend as the Malice Domestic conference where I was honored as one of the nominees for the 2007 Best First Novel Agatha Award. I'll be back at PPWC this spring, and I'm really looking forward to it.

Hi Lee,
Thanks for befriending this mystery author here as well as elsewhere online!

Your response was really quick. YOu must be sitting at your computer. Am attending a book festival in Bainbridge, GA. at the end of October. It will be good to sign a lot of books and meet new people. I signed up for a Spring conference (Mystery Writers of America) near Washington, DC for 2009. I love to attend these conferences, but airfare is getting so expensive, its almost prohibitive. But you never know what kind of contacts you'll make by networking. All it takes is that one person.

Wow, Lee! You know more people! I'm envious. I met a lot of high-profile people when I worked in law enforcement. At the time, I didn't think of them being high-profile. They were just people I knew and worked with Who knew? Life takes you on some fuuny journeys.
Read lots of books while you're in recuperation. (including mine!)
Later gator.

Lee,
I'm a BIG Lewis Grizzard fan. I'm from the Atlanta area, so I'd met him several times. It was a sad day when he died. He was so young. It seems like good people who do good things, die young, and those that need to die, are still taking up space and leading useless lives. I don' t understand the inequity of it.
Keep me apprised. Good luck on the surgery. It's going to take a while for recuperation.
I read when I can grab a few minutes. Takes me a week to read a thick, hard-back, but a paperback gets read faster.

HI Lee,
How's that disc (back) problem coming along? How'd the operation go?
By the way, what kind of books do you read? Or do you have time to read?
Charlotte

Hello Lee, Thanks for the invitation. I check out your Graveyard Shift regularly. Fortunately, I seldom have contact with real police-types. I did, however, interview Dee Dee Rominger of the Watauga County Sheriff's department to make sure the actions of fictional Detective Tucker in Perfect for Framing were plausible.

HI Lee,
Thanks for asking to be my friend on Book Place. Just picked up another newletter and you were in it! Wow! What exposure!

I just recently moved up to Knoxville, TN and am working on getting a job in the field up here, its not easy though. I'd like to get into investigations of some sort as that is where my interests lie. I will just have to wait and see who is willing to take a chance on me.

New Killer Career Excerpt at Acme Authors Link

Hi Gang,
Today, I've got a new Killer Career excerpt up at http://acmeauthorslink.blogspot.com/ . This one continues from the first excerpt I posted on Monday at http://makeminemystery.blogspot.com/

If you're curious about my recently released romantic suspense, come on over to one or both blogs to check it out.

Thanks,
Morgan

Time Out for Kindle Reading

Our local library has 8 kindles available for its patrons. The DH and I both got on the waiting list, mainly so I could use one. His number was reached and we picked up the kindle on Sunday afternoon. Now I've got a kindle to read for 2 weeks! So far I'm really loving it, especially the current book I'm reading, My Sister's Keeper by Jodi Picoult.

What about you? Do you own a kindle? Or, have you tried someone else's? Would you like to?

Who's Doing Cyber Monday?

I'm very carefully going to check out the Cyber Monday deals. I have a few items in mind that I plan to buy, but it would be very nice if they'd go on sale and save me some money. I won't be spending much. Can't afford to do so this year.

What about you?

Did You Shop on Black Friday?

There's still time to take the poll to the left about what you ate at Thanksgiving.
About Black Friday -
The DH despises mob scenes, but my brother and I do love the adventure of shopping on Black Friday. We weren't courageous enough to get up at the crack of dawn, though, so we did miss out on a few goodies, like the snuglee blankets and pots and pans sets at Menards, and some other items. I did manage to get some work gloves at almost 50 cents each pair, and a boot/shoe dryer which sounded interesting and was less than $9.00. The biggest extravagance there was this turntable with MP3 encoding/AM FM radio combination thing, but that was only $49.00, which isn't too bad. I didn't go for any of the high ticket items.

I didn't do too bad, but do have some Staples rebates to send in. They're pretty easy to do online, so I don't mind doing them. I bought some USB flash drives, batteries, and CD rewrites there.

I also bought a reversible light grey, almost white bubble coat and some grey boots at Walmart, both items $7.00 each, which I plan to use walking Rascal.

What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of deals did you get?

So, this year I was pretty practical, but it was still fun and I did get a few things I hadn't expected to find.

What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of finds did you get?

Rascal is sleeping right now. When she gets up, you'll know about it.

When RASCAL wakes up, you'll hear from her and/or her Mom - that would be me, Morgan Mandel.
