My writing really took off when I committed to writing every day. I also find a lot of inspiration from reading.

Joe Rampone and Jamie Kelly are back, and they are in the personal protection business. But they end up trying to solve a mystery from when Rampone was a detective, a case he never had the opportunity to resolve.

Why We Read Mysteries

Why We Read Mysteries

Mystery novels provide a mental escape. They allow us to temporarily suspend our disbelief and enter a different world. They are a form of entertainment that takes us away from our everyday lives.

Mystery novels also provide us with a sense of satisfaction. We enjoy trying to figure out the mystery before the detective does. We like to see how the detec

James Moushon Hi.

I’d like to introduce myself. Besides being the author of the Jonathon Stones Mystery Series, I am a strong Author's Advocate. I write articles highlighting other authors books. Also, I do author interviews and post them on my blogs. Thanks for friending me. Here’s my latest article.

Authors: The Task of Finding Readers – A Study
Over 30 Outstanding Authors Share Their Experiences.

All authors can learn something from this study.

As they say “This is great stuff. As authors try to gain traction in today’s marketplace. The secret besides writing good books is to find readers and establish relationships.”

You can view the complete study on the blog: HBS Author’s Spotlight

Eric I am currently working on The Trespass, following up with Jamie Kelly and Joe Rampone from Trading Lives. Just wanted to share a teaser that helps bridge the gap between the two books. Game Plan.
