So it’s been about a month since I’ve posted. I apologize for the delay, but I was offered a job in the city of big shoulders and I accepted. The past month has been a scramble filled with cross-country flights, moving boxes, and it-was-due-yesterday type of deadlines.
I’m thrilled to be back in Chicago, even though it’s cold. This is a great city rich in history, corruption, mystery, and crime. I’ll never stop writing about Los Angeles–it is, after all, the birthplace of noir–but it’s time to broaden my interests and get into some stories from the Second City.
Even better? It looks like I’m on track to finish my second book, Death on the South Side, in time for Christmas. Stay tuned, detective readers. I’ve got more of the good stuff coming your way.
