    Hi Aaron, welcome.
  • Kimathi T. Lewis

    Hi. House MD is one of my favorite also. Have a bless day.
  • JackBludis

    Congrats on your publication with New Pulp.
  • JackBludis

    Aaron, thanks for your comment about Shadow of the Dahlia, but copies are virtually impossible to obtain ... Even I don't have any. The last copy went at Amazon for double the cover price. My other Jack Bludis novels are also about L.A., but mostly Roman a Clef.
  • JackBludis

    PS: From your choices it is clear you have a great interest in L.A. Crime.

  • Victoria Dougherty

    Thanks - likewise. I realized as I read your authors and films that I'd left out several favorites of mine.
  • Copper Smith

    Looks like you're up to some fascinating stuff.
    Write on!
  • Maribel Ramos

    Good morning Aaron, thanks for the request. I enjoyed your profile and I'm looking forward to reading "The Science of Paul" in November. I'm new to CrimeSpace so I still have lots to look forward too. I'm a closet writer of Erotica, but haven't had anything published or read by strangers....only family and close friends. Even though I love true crime, horror and forensics...my writing is only poetic and erotica filled. :)
  • Copper Smith

    Neo noir based on a long-forgotten Steely Dan song?
    Why not?
    Check out We can't dance together on Twist of Noir!

    I was unable to attend and missed your signing.

    I will definitely stop by The Mystery Bookstore to get your book to read.

    Too bad L.A.'s writers often have to go elsewhere to teach.

    L.A. should lead a renaissance of crime writers.

    Have you heard any anecdotes about traveler's Personal Electronic Devices? [PEDs]

  • King James

    Whats up. Congrats on the book.
  • Brandon Jordan

    Yeah, Crime Rock is something new man.  The first episode or album will be done in January.  It's like the rock concept record meets radio crime dramas.  I'm not sure if you can share links here, i'm pretty new to this site.  But i'd shoot you the link if you wanna hear a couple songs.  

     

  • Brandon Jordan

    Yeah we do, just got it up.  www.crimerock.com  that will give a brief summary and the links below will guide you to places with the music.  

    BTW- I love this website, but i'm not sure where to really begin or what to do.  Do you have any suggestions for me on how to utilize this site better?  Like what do you usually do on here?
