Such a deal

If you're just starting out as a writer of crime fiction, you may want to sign up for the OCC/RWA online course I'm teaching, Crime 101. This will be nuts and bolts basics. You can learn more about it here.

It's only $20 for members of OCC/RWA and $30 for non-members. Hurry -- deadline for enrollment is June 9!

Labels: help for the aspiring writer, writing

When will your next book be out?

My next book will be out in early 2009. That book is a supernatural thriller, and I'll be posting more about it here soon.
I am working on a new Irene Kelly book, hoping it will be out in the fall of 2009. I'll post more about that here when more details are available.

You can also learn when new books or stories are going to be published by checking my Web site or by signing up for my mailing list.

How many times have you heard a speaker do that to a microphone, not quite believing his or her voice was being heard by the audience? You find me in a similar position, and apologizing in advance if I'm as clumsy as that speaker.

This is a place where readers can ask questions and get information about my books and stories, and where I'll be talking about subjects both related and unrelated to my writing. I'm hoping it will not only replace the message boards on my my Web site (alas, spamming posters forced my Webmaster Heidi Mack and me to abandon the message boards), but will also allow us to have some fun together discussing a wide range of topics. I hope to introduce you to some guest bloggers as well.

I post here and on a blog about the Crime Lab Project, the CLP Forum. That blog focuses on forensic science. If you haven't visited the Crime Lab Project Web site yet, please take a look.
