The second issue of 69 Flavors of Paranoia has gone live and they're open to subs for issue three until November 15. This is a non-paying market but the zine has a well-designed website to showcase your work. http://www.69flavorsofparanoia.com/index.html
Over on SMFS someone asked a question about poisons which put me in mind of a Yahoo group that I belong to called Crime Scene Writers. This is a marvelous group that includes police officers, private investigators, coroners, medical examiners, crime scene investigators, doctors, lawyers, nurses, and the list goes on and on. The point being, if you need some detail to flesh out your story the answer can be found on this list. You can ask your question or do a search of the message archive. There's a wealth of information available through this group. The most recent discussion was about killing a person with a knitting needle. You'd be surprised how many ways this can be accomplished! Here's the group addy if you're interested in joining http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/crimescenewriter

Great! Thanks as usual, Sandra.
I've been meaning to post that link but kept forgetting, Patti. If you're ever staring at a blank page the questions that come in to the group can really stir the juices. But be advised, some days you'll have up to 50 or more emails come into your box from the group, they're a very active bunch!
Wow-they need a once a day version--like some of the others have.
You can probably get it on digest, I just go with the individual emails. Makes it easier to delete what you're not interested in.
