Cameron Bane Writes a New Hero for a New Time in PITFALL! 99 Cents For Short Time Only!
On Sale Today For 99 Cents! There are a lot of reasons I wanted to come up with a new hero for a new time, but the main one is this: many people today think no one cares about them any more. Folks feel helpless, impotent, outgunned and outmanned against a world that seemingly grows more tense and implacable with each passing hour. The days trend bleak, the moorings have slipped, and there are no handles out there. Against such, people … [Read more...]
Blame it on Nancy Drew
I’ve been a book lover for as long as I could read. When I was a girl, at around age nine or ten, my mother introduced me to the Nancy Drew mystery series. From the moment I began reading them, I was hooked. What could be cooler to a young girl than to solve mysteries with her friends and have a really awesome blue convertible (or was it a coupe of another color?) to solve them in? From my start with Nancy Drew, I moved on to other mystery … [Read more...]
My Writing Technique: Simple Tips From a Crime Fiction Author
When it comes to writing novels, I’ve always found it helpful to break down the scenes on index cards. A story has a beginning, a middle, and an end. I make it a point of knowing (roughly) how I’d like my story to end. That way, I can create a map of sorts for getting from Point A (the beginning) to Point B (the midpoint) and Point C (the resolution). This technique is even more important when writing a screenplay. Each beat of a story needs … [Read more...]

Author Spotlight: John Robinson (aka Cameron Bane)
This week's featured author is John Robinson (aka Cameron Bane). Here is what he told us about the inner world of authors: Lately I’ve been reading some older paperbacks, and the last one I finished is a corker. It’s a mishmosh of genres—science fiction, horror, comedy, tragedy, suspense, even a spiritual subtext—but somehow the author pulls it all together, and the result is a mindbending roller-coaster ride that’s not for the … [Read more...]
Cameron Bane Brings His Brand of Suspense Thriller To WildBlue Press With the John Brenner Series
Cameron Bane is the pen-name for an author who has written several other thrillers but has chosen to now write under this nom de plume. We asked him, why the change? "A few years ago I wrote a couple inspirational novels that sold well, but don't really reflect my style now. The split came when I wanted to explore darker, more mature themes than that market would allow, and rather than force the issue, I simply left it. With my newer works, … [Read more...]

Post Three: The Search for Grand Duke Mikhail Romanov and the Saga of the Red Mountain Skull Part II
It's June 12 and Russia National Day, a patriotic holiday for this great and proud country and its warm and generous people. Outside of my hotel window I can hear an orchestra playing the 1812 Overture (celebrating the Russian victory over Bonaparte and the French outside the gates of Moscow). Ironically, it's also the anniversary of the June 12, 1918 abduction and murder of Grand Duke Mikhail Alexandrovich Romanov and his secretary and friend, … [Read more...]
