Losing Phyllis

Queen of Suspense Phyllis A. Whitney has died. It's always sad to hear of the death of an idol, and Phyllis was one of mine. When I was a kid, she made writing seem glamorous to me, not only with her worldly and exciting novels, but with the ladylike pictures of her on every jacket.

I reflected on a life of reading Phyllis at Poe's Deadly Daughters today.
