Book Blues (not the bookstore)

I've been working on my newest novel, Obsession, and wishing I had a magic wand to help me finish it quickly. But more than likely that won't happen. I'm plodding and plotting and plunging into places unknown.

The story is about a man who works at a chemical factory (among other characters, of course). I could use help from someone with experience with chemical pesticide manufacture (back in 1972) . Anybody out there know about this? If you worked at a factory that produced such stuff, such as DDT, 2-4D, Lidane, etc, would you be willing to assist me with some facts? If so, please send me a note. I could use your input.

Thanks a bunch.

We'll help you get the word out, Ellen! We can't wait to spotlight you again with another of your books. (Loved the title, btw, it came up in our Google alerts LOL!)

I RT'd:-) I've got Deadly Doses but all that tells is the form, symptoms and general info. I'd be glad to share that if you need it.

Hi Ellen T,

I wondered what had happen to you! You changed your Twitter name and I didn't pick it up.

Glad you've made some other friends. We've had some setbacks (two cars needed major repair) and I have had to ask Macy's to take back their bed and give me a new one. Long story, very boring.

Grandson and I went to see "UP" the new movie coming out from Disney. It is really well done and extremely UPLIFTING (pun intended). Do you get to the movies out your way? One of my co-critics is Gary Wolcott who writes for the Tri-City Herald newspaper as "Mr. Movie."

Talk soon.
