Fun on a Podcast
Yours truly had a blast as a guest on the podcast of Realm of Darkness. The podcast normally focuses on true crime stories, so I discussed how crime fiction writers are often inspired by or draw heavily on true crime stories and real criminals. Think such well-known books as The Black Dahlia, Murder on the Orient Express, and The Silence of the Lambs—as well as my less well known mysteries such as Bonded for Murder and The Big Dive.

Camp Amache designated National Historic Site
Camp Amache in southern Colorado, one of the ten shameful Japanese-American internment camps, finally was designated a National Historic Site March 18, 2022, by President Joe Biden. The camp figures prominently in my post-World War II mystery The Big Dive. During its three years in existence, 10,000 Japanese passed through, with a peak population of 7,318 in February 1943. That made it the tenth largest town in Colorado. You can read more about life inside the barbed wire in my blog.

Short Story Praised

My short story, "The Dead Man in the Pearl Gray Hat," was named Best Story I Read This Week by Robert Lopresti’s Little Big Crimes blog. The story appeared in the August 2019 issue of Mystery Weekly. The story is a riff on the larger-than-life Weegee, New York City's most famous crime photographer in the late 1930s and early 1940s.
