The Mystery Writer Who Remains a Mystery

We resume the Celery Tree Big Blog Tour today by traveling to Clarissa Draper, the mystery writer who likes to keep people guessing. Have you ever noticed there's no profile photo of Clarissa? Or any biographical information included?

Who is the elusive Clarissa Draper? 

Is she Agatha Christie reincarnated? Is she JK Rowling in disguise?  Is she actually a man? We may never know but while we ponder these deep thoughts, let's pop over to her blog and see what she he she has to say about Celery Tree.

But first, I must thank everyone who downloaded House of Diamonds yesterday, and linked about the giveaway. It had well over 1000 downloads in the first 24 hours of its free status. The last I checked it was in the top 250 of free books on the Kindle. I'm interested to see what happens in the next four days with this promotion. Sales of Uncut Diamonds also increased, improving its ranking by quite a bit.

Once the promotion ends, I'll share what we learned from it. Now on to Clarissa's!

  4. That's a fantastic response to House of Diamonds. I'm already a quarter of the way through the story. I had trouble putting it down even though I didn't have a lot of time to spare.
