Writing a Crime Novel - new talk at CSI Portsmouth by Pauline Rowson
Unfortunately owing to personal circumstances Dr Neil McCaw whose talk was to be on Victorian Crime Fiction at CSI Portsmouth on Saturday 5 November has had to withdraw from the programme. I will be stepping in to take his place in addition to being on the panel event in the afternoon. I won't be talking about Victorian Crime Fiction though but about writing a crime novel. My talk will take place in the morning of Saturday 5 November between 10.00am - 11.00 am and again between 11.30am - 12.30pm. Sorry to disappoint all those who were looking forward to Dr McCaw's talk but hopefully I can make up for it in some small way.
Here are the details:
Writing A Crime Novel - plotting, researching and writing the crime novel
If you've ever wondered where crime writers get their ideas from, how they turn those ideas into complex plots and sub plots, how they research for their novels and how the fiction compares with the fact now is your chance to find out.
Pauline Rowson is the author of the DI Andy Horton Marine Mystery Crime Novels set in the Solent area. She is an accomplished and entertaining speaker and draws the inspiration for her popular crime novels from the Solent area where she lives.

I'm on the Pompey Bus on Express FM 25 Oct.in Havant, talking about my crime novels
This week The Breakfast Show at Express FM is on the road on the Pompey Bus turning up at different locations around the area, and on Tuesday 25 October it will be at Havant town centre where I will be climbing on board to join presenter Adrian Knight on his show.
The Pompey Bus will be turning up at different locations everyday during this week and the presenters will be giving out clues during the show to a secret password. The first person to knock on the door of the bus and give them the secret password for that day will receive a pair of tickets to a Portsmouth FC home game as a minimum.
I will be on the show some time between 8.30am and 9am and I'm looking forward to it and chatting to Adrian Knight. I'll be talking about my DI Horton Marine Mystery crime novels, set in the Solent area; my forthcoming talk at CSI Portsmouth on Writing a Crime Novel and my appearance at CSI Portsmouth on the panel debate in the afternoon with fellow crime writers Mark Billingham, John Harvey and Michael Ridpath when we join the police, crime scene experts and forensic psychologists to debate crime fiction versus crime fact.
