    Fantastic interview, Thomas! Nikhil is such an articulate speaker. Although I wasn't at his NYC performance in person, I feel like I have an insight into what he is trying to do and how his work has changed since I saw his shows at Ohio State.

    Thanks very much for your kind comment. I do find the 50's lesbian subculture a fascinating background for this sort of fiction, and I am having a lot of fun exploring it. I only hope that I can render it accurately.

    I should say that some authors have already written mysteries set in the 50's lesbian world, but these have been humorous, campy pieces. The difference is that I am trying to write this as seriously as I can (though I do have some wisecracks in the dialogue, of course). Crime happened in that world, and crime is always serious.

    Great evocation of the noir style: dialogue, lighting, pacing.
    The lesbian subculture is a terrific new, unfamiliar framework for developing the characters.

    Hi Tom and Allan!
    I haven't had a chance to listen to the whole episode yet, but just visiting the page to see the links--I am really impressed with this meaty website and can't wait to explore all the links. :D

    What a exceptional story, beautifully written and lyrical. Great deal of emotion is generated not only from the prose, but from the vocal of the authors reading.

    Terrific start to this Podcast. Truly looking forward to other chapters.

    I think it sounds like hard work and fun, going to do research about historical disasters. Thanks for the podcast; really enjoyed thinking about the historical period, her authorship of it and your questions to her.

    A very nice start! Mm-mmm, democratizing goodness. As I would expect from you, the page for this episode is chuck full of useful extra information and leads, which is a welcome improvement over the one or two linear "would you like to know more?" links in many other podcasts. Keep that up. I'm looking forward to the next one.
