Dispatches from the City of Angels
I'm a writer and humorist living in and writing about Los Angeles. You can catch my novel LOSING CLEMENTINE out March 6 from William Morrow. In the meantime, feel free to poke around. Over at my website you can find even more blog entries than I could fit here, as well as a few other ramblings. Enjoy and come back often.

One night only!
Back to work after a three-day weekend? Feeling sluggish and tired after raiding all those Presidents' Day sales? Craving a bit of culture to shake off those consumerism blues and power you through the short work week?
No? Okay, how about some general murder and mayhem with a little humor thrown in? And snacks, did I mention there will be snacks? Really, really good snacks.
A few of my fellow LANDMARKED FOR MURDER authors and myself will be discussing "How to become a mystery writer" tonight at one of L.A.'s fabulous public libraries. So come on down and see us.

In case you missed it, LANDMARKED FOR MURDER is a collection of Los Angeles crime fiction. Each story takes place around some of Southern California's most famous landmarks, making for the wickedest of travelogs.
Jackie Houchin on ValleyNews.com says of it and my contribution, "Running Venice," in particular:
"'Running Venice' is a non-stop, heart-pounding, terror-inspiring thriller."
"LANDMARKED FOR MURDER is the best of the Sisters in Crime/LA anthologies so far...You will have a hard time putting this one down!"
