Alina Adams - New York Times Best Selling Writer
Welcome to www.AlinaAdams.com, official website of soap opera tie-in and figure skating writer Alina Adams! Let’s jump right into the big news for Fall of 2007!
Did you like "Oakdale Confidential", the novel that celebrated "As The World Turns" 50th Anniversary in 2006?
Well, this year, sister-soap "Guiding Light" turned 70, and it, too is commemorating the occasion with a tie-in novel, written by me and Julia London, entitled, "Jonathan’s Story".
Jonathan Randall (Tom Pelphrey) faked his own death and that of his baby daughter Sarah to keep his little girl safe from her great-grandfather, Alan Spaulding (Ron Raines) - the man Jonathan holds responsible for killing Jonathan’s true love, Tammy. Jonathan and Sarah went on the run and off "Guiding Light’s" canvas. Their life in hiding is detailed in "Jonathan’s Story"
Not to mention that Alan and Jonathan’s mother, Reva (Kim Zimmer), will soon share a secret that could easily destroy them both. Want to know what it is before the good people of Springfield do? The answer can only be found in "Jonathan’s Story!"
With a plot conceived by GL’s Headwriter to compliment the show’s sizzling Fall, "Jonathan’s Story" hits bookstores September 18, 2007. Order your copy here today!
Then, on December 4, 2007, check out my fifth and culminating Figure Skating Mystery, "Skate Crime". When a world-renowned coach is murdered prior to a star-studded tribute scheduled in his honor, the answer to a death in the present comes from an inquiry into his scandal-ridden past.
Plus, if you're a skating fan, you will not want to miss a single installment of my daily blog, www.FigureSkatingMystery.com. What started out as a "Where Are They Now?" site featuring exclusive interviews with stars ranging from Elvis Stojko to Petr Barna to Oksana Grishuk, then expanded to translations of Russian interviews from the likes of Irina Rodnina, Oksana Baiul, and Alexei Yagudin, has now been knocked up another notch! Check out my features on Katarina Witt, Brian Boitano, plus the multi-part series, "Lights, Camera, Axel: How Television Changed Skating."
Prior to writing the Figure Skating Mystery series, I was a television researcher for skating shows on ABC, ESPN, TNT, NBC and more. Check out my photos!.
I also have photos of today's skating stars enjoying my series, as well as excerpts from "On Thin Ice" and "Murder on Ice."
Finally, for off-ice romance, please take a look at my free, on-line serial, "Counterpoint."
Until next time - Happy Holidays!
Love;
ALINA ADAMS
