I have two new questions that were recently posted as comments. I wonder if any of you can help us with these mysteries:
Virgie wrote:
“I’ve read Kate Grilley Mysteries and the Kate Borden mysteries but cannot find any of the books she wrote about buying a house in England. Anyone know which ones I’m looking for?”
Sorry, Virgie, I cannot find anything about Kate Grilley (aka Kate Borden) writing another series, but hopefully a Cozy Mystery site reader knows something…

“Does anyone know what happened to author Sharon Kahn? She was writing a delightful series, started with Fax Me A Bagel, about Ruby, the Rabbi’s wife. Haven’t heard about anything from her in ages.”
I tried to do a Google search for Sharon Kahn, and came up empty on this question, also. I visited Sharon Kahn’s website, and I don’t think that it has been updated since 2002. I could not find the last two books in her series (Which Big Giver Stole the Chopped Liver? ’04 and Out of the Frying Pan, into the Choir ’06) on her site, and some books are referred to as “New” in 2002.
Please post a comment if you have some information for Virgie or Susan. Thanks!

Here’s one lead for Sharon Kahn:

Looks like she tried Twitter in 2009 but didn’t get into it.
Doesn’t help on why she’s stopped writing, though…

Thank you, Stephanie, for the information. It’s too bad that Sharon Kahn didn’t enjoy the Twitter experience… I’m sure her fans would have enjoyed seeing what she is up to.
(I am not a member of Twitter, Face Book, etc. >>> I already spend way too much time on the computer!)

I, too have been waiting and waiting for another in Sharon Kahn’s series, love them!! But was surprised that doing searches for her online barely came up with any info on her and none of it recent. Was beginning to think she had passed away but decided that then I probably would have at least been able to find that info. I know that she is not really young, I believe in her late 70’s but could find hardly anything telling me what she is up to or even her own site gave no hints about future books or if we are to be left with no more in the rabbi’s wife series, which would be a shame.

I love all her books so much. I just found them all super cheap used on amazon and ordered every single one again.

I, too, have wondered what’s happened to Sharon Kahn? I’ve done the same searches others have described with the same results–namely, nothing. Has anyone tried to follow up with her publisher? I may do that. My only other possibility for tracking her down is my life-long high school girlfriend Rosie O. who is Jewish, lives in Austin, and may know (or know of) the author.
Anyone who’s tracked down the amusing Ms. Kahn, please share your news. Thanks
