New Kid on the Block

Well, I'm fairly new to all this so may well make a few blunders re. adding Friends and stuff!

It's great to know that there are so many people out there who enjoy crime fiction. Kudos to those of you who also write - I would never be brave enough to try it, and certainly wouldn't have the dedication to put in the time and effort it needs, (and of course - having zilch talent would also be a drawback).

Saw you liked Wire in the Blood.
What did you think of the latest one about the soldier in America?
The editing did my head in a bit.

I don't know about nerve to write, but it sure does take dedication.

(Seriously, it's funny how some of us end up the same places. Great minds think alike... right?)
