Thank you Elizabeth, have enjoyed your father’s writing since 11 years old. I love your stories, and it feels like I am reading your father’s work. The apple did not fall far from the tree! Looking forward to the collection of your Dad’s stories and especially The Three Investigators reboot!
Thank you for this detailed update and your history with The Three Investigators. I will admit that I was a bit skeptical with the reboot idea - and mostly for the reasons you presented here. While a girl detective version might appeal to my daughters, the idea that there's something out there for the boys of the world is encouraging as well.
I hope that if you can't find an official publisher, you'll consider self-publishing. It may not have the full reach, but would be a great way to reach out to the fans of the series. I look forward to reading the books as they're released to see how the characters and stories have evolved.
For what it's worth, I remember the first time I encountered a Three Investigators book - and I was young enough that the "scary" part freaked me out so much I didn't return for a couple of years. When I did, I realized that it would have been better to keep reading back then, but I was a fan. Even now it's fun to re-read and reminisce about those days back before cell phones and internet and see how kids might have gotten around and communicated.
I was posting to BlueSky about the 20 books that have stuck with me and searching for an image of the cover of Mystery and more Mysteries when my search turned up your sub stack. I am so glad that I can tell you your father was one of my favorite authors in my youth and I still have my copies of M&mM as well as the Three Investigators that my children read and my grandchildren are about to start. And I’m looking forward to your new books! I still re-read the old ones from time to time. They are my literary comfort food!
