Re: RARA-AVIS: Thesis.

Well, it was a "creative thesis" which meant I wrote my own detective novel and then went back and looked how it fit in the genre, plus a look at the growth of the genre. My plot structure ended having a Ross MacDonald feel, while the detective (Jackson Donne) was probably a cross between Patrick Kenzie and Spenser. (*Now, I would like to be modest and say I'm not good enough to reach the level of them) but it was an interesting experience nontheless.
