Expertise:  I can answer any questions about hosting or participating in a murder mystery party.

Experience in the area
I have been hosting murder mystery parties for 9 years. I owned a murder mystery dinner theater for a year. 4 years ago I started writing my own murder mystery parties and began selling them on the web. Within weeks I had to choose between my dinner theater and my party kit site. I just could not do both. I love writing so I choose to continue this and I have never looked back. My site Dinner and a Murder Mystery Games is one of the largest most authorative web sites on the web relating to murder mystery parties. I have an extensive forum in which I answer murder mystery questions. I also write articles. http://www.dinnerandamurder.co

Organizations
Better Business Bureau

Publications
I was featured in the Tennessean & my articles are published on the web in numerous places.

Education/Credentials
Numerous creative writing classes, art classes.

Awards and Honors
I have won some cool site and game site awards in the past, but I no longer post these on my site.

Past/Present clients
I have quite a few famous clients, but I would never reveal their identity to protect their privacy.

What do you like about this subject?  It is one thing I know from all sides. I have attended these, hosted these, had a murder mystery dinner theater, write murder mystery games and now have an online business selling them.
What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?  We are working now to go into boxed sets and get them into stores. Ours will be the first boxed sets of this size.
Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:  Solving the murder will NOT be your guests main goal.
