In most cases, I would say, "No" or "Only if I knew the author was already talented, just going through a coke relapse."
I don't know if Laura Roberts is taking sleigh rides between paragraph breaks, but I do know one thing. She wrote Rebels of the 512 in three days as part of a contest. Even a crackhead slamming keys for three incoherent days would have to admit that was an ambitious…

NPR has been very good to me, and their recent review of my bank heist novel, Outsourced, is no exception. Here is what they've said so far about 3 of my crime novels:
Outsourced "a dark gem of a story...a macabre delight to read"
Pariah "as nasty and clever as noir can get"

I’ve been a member of several writers’ critique groups over the years and I’ve come to realize a major factor in each group’s downfall has been the lack of writers. This may seem quite logical, but it’s true for any group. Knitters, martial artists, foreign language studies, puzzlers…if you are a part of a group and aren’t involved in the activity, the group suffers. A few more lackadaisical people and the group collapses, becomes less fun, or has less worth for those who are…
