Do yourself a favor

If you write crime fiction of any kind, you must subscribe to Crimespree Magazine.

There's no better place to read reviews by real readers, interviews, and opinion pieces by crime writers.  It's absolutely essential.



One of the (many) reasons it's essential reading for crime writers is the reviews of front list books.  You must be reading in your category, and the reviews at Crimespree are a good way to find out which books those are.  They aren't just the best sellers from the big names.  The coverage is wide and deep.

 An annual subscription is $38. Bi-annual is $72.

Don't tell me you can't afford to subscribe.  You can't afford NOT to.

    There are a few libraries in Illinois that have it, though I'm not sure how far back (or if they still subscribe). But sometimes you can put in an Interlibrary Loan request through your local library for free access to specific articles that may not be freely available online.

    One of my failings in life - not following good advice. Check is in the mail. Thanks again.

Keep your comments succinct. Any comment that runs longer than 100 words is generally too long.

If you're commenting more than three times a day, it's too much.


Civility is enforced. Spelling/grammar mistakes may be pointed out ONLY in the blog post itself, not in any of the ensuing commenter's contributions.

If your comment doesn't show up, it's most likely that Blogger ate it. Try posting again using a GoogleID. (comment moderation is on only for older posts)
