Why I Wrote Fast Track

[John]

John DeDakis Hi, Everyone..... I'm new here. The short answer to the question is that my job at CNN changed -- I'd been a writer, but was promoted to editor. After 20 years as a reporter, editing was tedious. I needed a creative outlet and writing a novel that had a backdrop of politics and journalism seemed like a good idea. I drew upon some personal experiences (my sister's suicide and a car/train collision I witnessed as a kid) and pretty soon I had the ingredients for a mystery-suspense novel. Does that answer your question? Anyone? Anyone? ..... Bueller?

Hello John. Good to see you on this site.
For those of you who have not read Fast Track, you are missing the "train." I couldn't put it down.
