However, since I got a new computer a couple of months ago, I have not seen that page. I don't know if anyone else has seen that, or if it just stopped, but I'm not sure why it would do that.<br /><br />I have also been viewing your blog for a while, and completely agree with you about the mismanagement of the Nancy Drew series. I believe it began to start being mismanaged when they ended the original series in 2003, and began the Girl Detective series. But I don't believe any damage was done until the trilogies began. I think that the Diaries' inconsistent tone and direction has also been a problem (although I hear there is a new editor, so maybe there's hope it will change). I think the games are beginning to come back into the public eye - I've seen more and more articles about them online, and I think the trend of the YouTube walkthroughs have given them some more attention. But I think the CBS pilot (which I did not care for anyway) was another blow.<br /><br />I love your website, though, and it has brought me to the attention of a wide range of series books. I particularly became fond of the Dana Girls and Ken Holt series. My mother gave me her Trixie Belden collection, and both of us were surprised to find out there were 39 in the series (she had #1-10 and 15 in the 70s paperback). I - and many others - are very thankful for your time and dedication to the website.M.

So, thank you very much, Jennifer. I appreciate your efforts. I was recently, for example, delighted to complete my e-book collection of Linda Carlton. Without your website, I don't think I'd have known the titles of all the Linda Carlton books, or even how many books there are in the series.Pethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10004386083583985855noreply@blogger.com
