YOu might want to include my outfit - The Writers' Workshop - in your education section. We don't specialise in crime, but we do offer all kinds of help to writers across the entire spectrum of fiction. And as it happens, our crime department is sinisterly good ...

I'm new to the mystery genre and hoping to publish my completed manuscript.This looks like an informative site and I hope to connect with more experienced writers.
