Lots of critter stories this week, and the dress search continues…
Cancer-sniffing dogs are so amazing: a study with a 100% accuracy rate.
Literature by the Numbers: No surprise that James Patterson is an overachiever when it comes to clichés, and James Joyce loved exclamation points. Fun with lit statistics.

I learned a lot about muscle fascia this week. You should, too. Important stuff.
Parrots partying like it’s 1999 in the poppy fields of India.
Kea birds are crazy-smart parrots found only in New Zealand. They crack each other up.

Edgar Week is coming in late April. Wednesday the 26th is the day-long Edgar Symposium, with talks and panels featuring many of your favorite mystery authors. It lasts from 9 to 5. So much to do! If you’ll be in NYC, you won’t want to miss it. (My panel is at 2:00 btw.)
On Wednesday, I was at The Kill Zone, talking journals. Do you journal?
Have a great weekend! I’ll be right here, editing…
