I listen to mystery stories sometimes - even many years ago when I was in elementary school I got interested in mysteries.
We used to get a sort of paperback catalog of books we could buy, I think it was from Weekly Reader. My mom would let me buy a book or two, sometimes. One of the first ones I got was Adventure At Black Rock Cave, by Patricia Lauber.
I loved AABRC.
I read almost all of the Nancy Drew books that existed at that time.
I read Sherlock Holmes stories, which I received - a huge, thick book - one Christmas, under the tree....
Murder, She Wrote and other TV shows and movies - and "true crime" shows, about a million of them, on You Tube.
These stories seem to draw your mind in close to them, and you notice things, and start to speculate, in a casual way.
It's exercise - kind of like fast-walking for your mind.
