For my upcoming birthday, I originally planned to run a marathon. Yup. I already bought shoes and all but then I got sick twice (and I'm still sick now), effectively derailing my training. So, great procrastinator that I am, I'm putting off running a marathon until my next birthday.

Few things are more thought-provoking (or maybe just provoking!) to a writer than a bad review. In an otherwise positive assessment of Part VI of The MX Book of New Sherlock Holmes Stories: 2017 Annual, one reader complained that my story “A Scandal in Serbia” “meanders all over the place, tamper...

my hot, moody neighbor
with questionable manners and a fresh gash over his ey... Read more of this blog post »

I have a tendency to work on more than one story or novel at a time. I like to flit among them like a bee in a rose garden.
Part of that is my ADD or ADHD, I think. Been trying to train myself to focus on one thing at a time. But it just isn't my nature.

Interview with Tana French
Dublin crime novelist Tana French has the kind of critical reviews that other writers would…well, die for. Her debut murder mystery,
In the Woods
, won rave reviews and multiple literary prizes upon its release in 2007. Since then, her books have tended to haunt the bestseller lists, on both sides of the pond, and for months at a time. British newspaper The Independent has dubbed French "The First Lady of Irish Crime," and The Washington Post says she is the most important crime novelist to emerge in the past ten years. ...more
