I have included poetry. com and TNBW in my bio--Good or bad? I'm not sure.

 | Wilted Magnolias--Pitch | Janet Taylor-Perry | Short Story | Mystery and Crime | 4 | 0.28 | Oct 24, 2011 |
Summary:This is the pitch and query for Wilted Magnolias. Not sure I should include poetry.com since I've been told long after thought I had been chosen to have a poem published that it's "vanity publishing." BUT why would I NOT include this wonderful site, TNBW that is, for an agent or such to know I've worked on this piece?
All thoughts welcome.

Harry Evans works for secret government agencies, sees himself as the last line of defense against the evil people in the world. He’s good at it.
Kate Evans, studying for an MBA at Wharton, is contemptuous of her father and has as little to do with him as possible. After all, he’s nothing but a killer...
Readers get a big swirling thriller--mad-genius twins try to "own the President"--plus entertaining inter-generational conflict.
Harry Evans, daughter Kate, and her friend Carmen are increasingly in the center of the vortex, not sure what is real or where their loyalties should be. The country is coming apart. President Simpson declares war on Mexico, and hints at worst. Kate and Harry, alone against the world, start to function as partners -- but don’t try to tell Kate that. The question is, can these two alphas stop squabbling long enough to save the country from a conspiracy to seize control of the president and to accomplish this in a way that conceals what has happened.
