ANIMAL MYSTERIES, Volume 14: No. 4, Winter 1998


You all know we're having two issues of Mystery Readers Journal focusing on Animals in Mysteries this year. One of the past issues (Volume 27, No. 3, 2011
) is available, but Volume 14, No. 4 has not been. Now it is thanks to Kate Derie. She created a downloadable PDF of Animal Mysteries: Volume 14: No 4 from 1998. That means we have all the Animal Mysteries issues available for purchase as PDFs. Wowza. 

Kate Derie, Associate Editor, writes, 

Since we’re doing another issue of Animals, I thought I would go all the way back to the 1998 issue on Animal Mysteries and produce a PDF. These old ones are getting harder and harder to remaster. This one was originally done in Word 5.1 (!!!), with a weird layout to make it easy to cut and paste for the printer. I had to pull out my 2003 PowerBook, which still runs 5.1, in order to straighten things out. But it’s fun, in a nerdy kind of way.

Thanks, Kate! How fabulous!
