Stuff By Me June 30, 2009

Lots of stuff by me out now.

First off, three reviews I did last fall for Spinetingler are now online at http://www.spinetinglermag.com.  I review Sean Chercover’s excellent Trigger City, Reed Coleman’s equally excellent The Fourth Victim, and the Rockford-like TKO by Tom Schreck.  Read it.  Download it.  Just go.  They have a lot of new fiction in Spinetingler this month as well, and this issue’s been a long time coming.

Second, I have even more reviews in the Summer edition of Mystery Scene. I review A Plague of Secrets by John Lescroart, Dead Man’s Dust by Matt Hilton, and Six Suspects by Vikas Swarup, whose novel Q&A become Slum Dog Millionaire.   Mystery Scene is on your local bookshelf now.  And if it’s not, grab the manager at your local big box store or indie, drag him or her over the counter, and scream, “I want Mystery Scene right NOW!!!”  (Er…  I am not responsible for any arrests or restraining orders if you do, but at least you’ll have made your point.)

And finally…

FICTION!

I have a new short story out in Mysterical E.   Call “In Collections, ” it’s a hit man story based in the Lake Erie islands.  It starts as every short story should start:   With a naked man staring down the barrel of a gun.  Kooky, eh?

That’s all for now.  More as more happens.

Whaddya know, “In Collections” was pretty good. Sort of the “Memento” of Winter-penned crimes stories.

And when did Mysterical-E get so fancy lookin’? I remember years ago when they were sort of the poor relation of e-zines, but not only are they still truckin’, they’re getting better.

Thanks so much for the review, Jim. Thrilled that you liked Trigger City.
