Thanks for the vote of confidence!! I'm trying to get draft one completely finished before I start to get fully into the reading of it, but I've loved everything about it, plus I've made some great new friends in the nypd homicide dept. Which is great considering I live in Ireland!!
I still read my stuff all the time. If I have a spare five minutes, I grab a paperback, open it at random and read - even though I could probably recite it blindfold now!
I read crime fiction and have just released my first crime novel - ebook. I studied 10 years of forensics, case files, crime scene procedures to do this.
