Just want to finish my intro, as per miker's suggestion and
in full agreement with bill denton's sentiments re.
self-promotion. My first novel was published this spring in
France by Francois Guerif at Rivages/Noir. Although the book
was just published, Francois bought the manuscript a few
years ago. Prior to his buying the book, I had no idea I was
a noir writer ...I'm still not sure I am. But, at that time,
I began reading authors he published, whom I wasn't all that
familiar with, including David Goodis, Jim Thompson, and
Charles Willeford, all of whom were wonderful discoveries for
me. Also during this time, I discovered you all and your
discussions which were and are very interesting for me. My
book, originally written in English, is called Beware the
Solitary Drinker and will be published in the US (in a
slightly different version than the French edition) this fall
by Poisoned Pen Press.
