We bought Edwin of the Iron Shoes not long after it was published and have been Sharon McCone fans ever since. Add to this the recent stand-alones -- Point Deception and Cyanide Wells -- which are exceptionally good reads. |

I saw Sue Graftons praise on your book "Pennies on a Dead Woman's eyes" last november and decided to read it right away. I've been a big fan of Sharon McCone ever since. I'm at the end of 4th book and have the 5th already waiting. |

Right now I have your lastest two books to read, Sorry I'm a little behind but so thrilled that I can finally tell you how wonderful a writer I think you are. I love your books. I have read everyone from the first. Then you split and wrote about Elen (sp) the museum in Califnornia. I read and like her and waited for more but you stayed with Sharon. Of course I love Sharon. But as much as I love Sharon I must tell you and if you could pass it along, I love Nameless also. And when you two wrote the couple of books together I loved them. I also love the way Sharon keeps throwing Nameless's name in every couple of books. You are great, and so is your husband. Nameless is someone you just can't help but fall in love with. So please pass this last part on. Thank you for getting a newsletter together I will eagerly await it. I wish both you and Bill a wonderful year with nothing but success and happiness.
Sincerely
Beverly J. Smith |

I, too, am a fan from book one, Edwin of the Iron Shoes. Sharon and I have grown up together (although my years seem to pass more quickly than hers) and I think of her as my daring pal. And I'm loving learning about the denizens of Soledad County. Thanks for the pictures! Those miniatures are amazing, and the photographs scramble the scale sufficiently to make it seem like we're really spying on Sharon! I guess turn about is fair play? Thank you for all of your wonderful storytelling. Looking forward to whatever lies ahead! |

I’ve been waiting for this for a long time – an official website for Marcia Muller. If anyone ever deserved to have one. . . She has perseverance, pluck, and a lot of talent.
I met her when she had only one book out and have followed along happily ever since. And just the other day I discovered a VHS tape from www.womenofmystery.com. The title is “Women of Mystery: Three Writers Who Forever Changed Detective Fiction.” It’s about Marcia, Sue Grafton, and Sara Paretsky. It is in our library system. And I have asked NetFlix to order it which is, in my humble opinion, something everyone should do.
Graham Greene once said, “I didn’t invent the world I write about – it’s all true.” I believe him. I also believe that Sharon McCone is out there in San Francisco just waiting to investigate our problems. You go, girl!
p.s. Sometimes I miss All Souls.

Just listened to Till the Butchers Cut Him Down, this would be the first of your books I've listened to, and now I'm in a dilemma. I liked it so much that I'm actually considering starting at the beginning of the McCone mystery series. I'm a stay at home mom and use "books on tape" often. I wish I'd have known about this series sooner, we need more female detective series and I have a feeling that I'll enjoy this one very much - Thanks |

I love the Sharon McCone character. I've read all this series to date and look forward to the new books. I've also read your collaborations w/husband Bill Prozini (spelling?) and loved them all. Please keep writing about Sharon's ups and downs. She's a great character. Thanks for creating the web site so we're kept abreast of your latest. |

I am suffering from Alzheimer's desease and can't read like I did before, but can still listen to and enjoy your books on tape. Incidentally, I have two cats a male named Ralph, and a female named Alice, from the old Honeymooner's series. Thanks again for your terrific writing skills.

I have had one of your books on my "TBR" pile for quite some time now and never got around to it yet. The mailing list I am happy to belong to has suggested your books many times but... One of our members got your newsletter and passed it on to us and, after reading it and then perusing your website, I find that I like what I have read about you. Since I tend to read authors, getting to like an author is an important thing. So far, afeter reading the first paragraph, I really enjoy your book.
Congratulations on your website...it is a nice one!
Thanks!! |

I ran out of mystery books to read and asked the librarian for a recommendation with the one condition that it had to be a woman author and a woman heroine, and she recommended you. I borrowed all your books I could find in the branch, went to another, and wiped them out as well. I LOVE your stories and wished I discovered them earlier. I was born and raised in SF, so I really appreciate your details of our city. Maybe one day there will be a Sharon McCone TV series? Thanks for books without abundant profanity and explicit sex scenes, but with a herione who can take care of herself! |

Hi Marsha,
I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your website. I'm new to your books, & I have Acid Row sitting in my pile of TBR books, so I'll let you know what I think of your writing, once I've read some of your books. Actually, I also have The Shape of Snakes too. :O) All my fellow reader friends have highly recommended your books to me, so I better hurry up & read them!
Anyway, keep up the good work, & I hope you have a wonderful summer!
Ciao For Now,

I've been a fan for years, but just picked up 'Listen to the Silence' last weekend -- and when I picked it up last night I couldn't put it down until I finished it! I especially was drawn to it since a good friend of mine now on the faculty of the U of Washington grew up on the Flathead Reservation in Montana. My next note is to her, recommending the book! I think she'll love it too. |

I discovered your books about two months ago and just finished my 14th today. I can't wait to get to the library to find out if they have any more that I haven't read.
Sharon McCone is a wonderful character -- human -- not a cardboard character. She is upstanding, yet understands that sometimes the rules must be bent for the good of all. I feel like Sharon McCone is a dear friend I can call on in times of trouble.
Ms. Muller, you have a great gift! Your books grab me from page one and hold me in their grasp until I turn the last page.
I am a published children's author who is currently writing a mystery for the 12 to 16 year old age bracket. Reading your books has given me great insight into the progression of a good mystery. Keep up the good work! I can't wait to get your new book.
As I have done with Patricia Cornwell and James Patterson, your books will be added to my collection.

Dear Marcia,
I absolutely love your books! I have my daughter addicted to them too! I love Sharon and Hy, and I really hope that they stay together.
I am part Native American and adopted too! I didn't put Listen to the Silence down until I had read every page!
Thank you for such wonderful books! I have every single one of them, and I will continue to buy each one as it comes out. It is eagerly awaited!
Yours,
