MissMy80sShowshide bio
 Author has written 33 stories for Scarecrow and Mrs. King, and Remington Steele. Thank you for reading my stories. I am a mom of two crazy busy kids, have a husband who works way more than he should and work full time myself. I have always loved the detective/drama shows of the 80s and thanks to DVD and Netflix, I have been able to share some of it with my kids. Two of my favorite shows - Scarecrow and Mrs. King and Remington Steele - and their characters will be the basis for most, if not all of my stories. I feel I understand these characters the most and understand the writers more than some other shows. Please enjoy my craziness, all constructive criticism is welcome!

A Little BubblyA Little Romance by Karen LaManna reviews
Originally published in Scarecrow and Mrs. King 35th Anniversary Fanzine: Service in Shadows, 2018. This tale is something I whipped up for a filler at the end of Flight For Freedom from Season 3: Episode 10. It's mostly told from Lee's point of view. I really enjoyed writing this and I hope you like reading it.
