Hi Eric,
Just wanted to check in and see what you are up to. I'm impressed with your prota-killing! Have fun with your new gal...sounds like she is quite capable of carrying your series.
Eric,
Glad to meet you. Chester Himes, huh? Me too. I don't know where the hell Jonathan Valin got to. I'll check your stuff out. You can check mine if you want on the A Twist Of Noir blogsite. I've got a bunch posted there.
I read your interview on The Big Thrill. "A painful dumpling accident." Now there's something you don't see every day! I've got to see what that's all about.
Many thanks for the friend request. I absolutely have to track down and snag some of the Ray Sharp books--they sound right up my alley.
I am currently monkeying around with creating a hard-boiled detective yarn set in Shanghai during the late 1920's.
Hi Eric - Thanks for adding me. I too have lived in Asia which has had a huge effect on what I write. I lived in Manila for 4 years and spent a few years in Hong Kong off and on. Also traveled all over Asia through the years.

"Bleeder" will be published by Sophia Institute Press, a small house in Manchester, NH. This will be one of the first titles for their new fiction imprint.
I love baseball, too. Next week, we head to Jupiter, FL for five St. Louis Cardinals spring training games!

True, and as a partner in a big law firm, I have certainly had my opportunities to observe some scurrilous conduct.

Eric -- I got a journalism degree at Northwestern, served as an assistant editor on the now-defunct Business Atlanta magazine, then edited and published a free arts and entertainment magazine in Atlanta. No fodder for crime fiction there. How about you? What assignment sent you to Asia? Reece

Hi Eric -- Thanks for the invite. Your Ray Sharp series sounds really intriguing. I'm also a former journalist, but it sounds like your experience was a lot more exciting than mine .... Reece
Eric, Thanks for the invite & I look forward to finding & reading "Wrong Side of The Wall". I'm a baseball coach & it sounds really good. Were you at LIM last year? Best Rod
Nice to meet you, Eric. Your Ray Sharp series sounds exciting! Always enjoy meeting intriguing writers and characters both. I'll be sure to look for you on my next book store run. Best of luck with your current wip!
It's Sophia Institute Press, launching a new category fiction imprint called Fiction Forge. Sophia is better known for re-issuing theological and literary classics but they decided to branch out into original contemporary fiction. I'm glad it was accepted in time to announce it at the February "Love is Murder" conference in Chicago this weekend.
Hey, Eric, good to meet you. I pitched my mystery "Bleeder" to Ben LeRoy at a crime writers' conference in Chicago last February and he requested the manuscript. But it has found a home elsewhere.
Hello Eric,
Thank you for welcoming me on as a friend. I don't normally write crime fiction but my novel, Savage Days Haunted Nights, available now on amazon.com, certainly deals with crime -- hijacking, arsen, extortion, loan sharking, assault, murder, the mob, etc. I learned about these things growing up on the old West Side of Chicago, Capone territory, where I faced a few arrests as a teenager, reformed, went to college and became a writer. My novel is stark, real and deals not only with crime but also with it's opposite, morality, which is dealt with dramatically and in a unique way. I look forward to reading some of your books.

P.S. Your agent has a terrific blog.
