This wasn't Hardy's usual brief--uncover the mysteries of a nineteenth-century shipwreck--but he could do with an easy case and the retainer was generous.

Debriefing on an author's personal relationship with the genre....As many of you may know, An Adventure in Indianapolis is a crime fiction novel but it is not a conventional mystery or whodunnit story. It is not about a murder, and quite frankly, I am glad that it is not.
As an author I can tell you that writing stories and receiving them is not the same but of course they are connected. For readers who know an author, and even more so for an author it is easy to see what…

Military Writers Society of America review:
Peter Romero--a Marine veteran, former military policeman, and disgraced tribal policeman for the Cochiti pueblo--is an unlikely and reluctant hero in this murder mystery set in the world of the Arizona desert. When Romero's cousin is murdered, no one seems interested in pursuing justice except Romero and an odd old Apache, Tag Taza. Bad things keep coming from all sides: meth-dealing biker gangs, assaults, arrests by the local police, a…

Deacon Pete posted this review about Damaged Goods on Amazon: “Another Hannibal Jones Winner! Good action adventure featuring Hannibal and the original cast of characters, plus.

It's a Friday night. I'm home alone and snowed in in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. I'm a 53 year old California boy who has no business living here in the Great American Midwest, but I'm stuck here for economic reasons. Tonight I have half-a-case of ramen, 2/3rds of a Fifth of Old Crow with some Coca Cola for mixers, and a brain full of SEO strategies, PLR posts to write, Google Adwords Keywords to research, and potential guest-blogs to plan. Then it hits me... it's probably the cheap bourbon…

Much to my surprise, my web site has won an award. Thanks to the kind people at PWA, we can now claim another success. "We" refers to my webmaster, Bob Stein, and myself, because the site is a co-production. He handles the technical stuff and I supply the images and text.
The site has worked well from me. It has an e-mail address where readers can reach me, and I answer all my e-mail. Apart from losses after a computer crash several years ago, I've kept their addresses…

Writers are, by nature, creative people. We sit around daydreaming of plots, characters, heroes and villains. But, what happens if you think up a terrific marketing idea yet don't follow through?
Too much work? Okay, it might take some effort. Afraid it won't work? Can't know unless you try. Think people will reject it? Maybe. Or, maybe you'll break new ground.
Scenario: The blog over at my publishing house was lacking. Nobody seemed to be following. I posted a…
