You are invited! Come visit us at the Half Price Books store in Bloomingdale, Illinois on Saturday, May 3, to hear our updated version of "Lost Lingo," the presentation we gave at the International Agatha Christie Festival last September. 

"Lost Lingo" is based on my book, Agatha Annotated, and on the website database my husband, Don, built. Festival folk are hardcore Agatha Christie fans, so we pitched our initial presentation to that very specific audience. But there are lots of Christie fans whose focus is, shall we say, less extreme. So we retooled "Lost Lingo" for a more general readership. 

Don has an extensive background in theatre and radio, so he'll be reading the quotes from Christie's books while I provide the explanatory bits. We're practicing the back-and-forth and hope it will be an entertaining way to learn a bit more about the 1920s and Agatha Christie's novels.

As I mentioned in my last blog post, we were introduced to Vito at Half Price Books Bloomingdale by Don Fulmer, the organizer of the Lake Park Film Appreciation Society where we spoke in March. Networking is so important and we are grateful to Don for the introduction! 

We would love to have you stop by, hear our revamped "Lost Lingo," and browse Half Price's books! The date again is Saturday, May 3, from 1:30p until 3:00p. Books make a fabulous Mother's Day gift, by the way!
