When Gil Valle and Brian Whitney approached us about publishing RAW DEAL, we were told that Gil wanted to tell his story “his way.” Our concern was that “his way” included graphic descriptions of the sexual fantasies that landed Gil in hot water in the first place and included the abduction, torture and murder of women, as well as cannibalism. As … [Read more...]

Author Debbi Mack on the Amazing Opportunities for Authors Onscreen
I just returned from the most amazing conference. I attended a Sisters in Crime event in Hollywood, California. There I learned that people in the industry are constantly on the prowl for great new works to adapt into movies or television shows. This gives authors all the more reason to write the best books they can for publication. However, keep in mind that adaptations aren't limited to just novels. A work can be adapted from a short … [Read more...]

William Florence: The Origins of Max Blake
Back in the day when newspapers still prowled the earth, I was working for a metro in Oregon and had a serendipitous lunch one day with a couple of colleagues. We got to talking about books and genres and novelists, and what worked and didn’t, and folks who were in it for the long haul and those who were one-shot wonders. Louis L’Amour’s name came up, along with the eternal debate of whether a mere Western constitutes literature in any sense. It … [Read more...]
