Email Mystery a Novel Idea

Sunday March 13, 2005
Have you ever sat in anticipation of an email -- a response to a query letter, news from a friend, or an important business decision -- in which the inability to speak directly heightened the anticipation of the response? Much lip service has been given to the way in which email has changed the way we communicate, but little has been done to harness this change. The Daughters of Freya does just that.

The Daughters of Freya is a mystery told through a series of emails exchanged among its characters. The story is also delivered to the reader in email form , 4-5 times a day over a period of three weeks. The reader's anticipation is heightened with the expectation of each missive.
