The Sleepyside Zone

These pages include articles I've written on Trixie Belden as well as transcripts of interviews I've conducted with published mystery writers who are Trixie Belden fans.

UPDATE: The link to the left, "Trixie in Mystery Scene," is an article first published in the Winter Issue (February 15, 2004) of Mystery Scene. For this article I interviewed several current mystery authors who read and enjoyed Trixie Belden as young readers. I couldn't get include even 1/10th of their insightful remarks in the article, so I've posted the transcripts of my interviews with Earlene Fowler, Kathryn Reiss, Lora Roberts, and Denise Swanson -- Trixie Fans All!!! Click on the "Authors and Fans" link for these transcripts.
