Tahnee Georgina Campbell wrote her first crime fiction story at the age of sixteen as a gift for her best friend.

TheBow Street Societyis a fictional group of amateur detectives, operating in Victorian London, that feature in the murder mystery writings of award winning crime author, T.G. Campbell. Eac

If I write when I'm feeling "ugh" then I know I'd only end up going back and re-editing it later. I try to plan ahead as much as possible; I'm constantly asking myself "why would that happen? What would happen next if they said that or that happened? Does it even make sense considering the character doing it?" I find that helps a lot when I get stuck.(less)

REVIEW: The League of Frightened Men (Nero Wolfe 2) by Rex Stout

The League of Frightened Men

4*

I discovered Nero Wolfe and his assistant Archie Goodwin through the television adaptation starring Maury Chaykin (Wolfe) and Timothy Hutton (Goodwin). As with the first Nero Wolfe mystery, the story in The League of Frightened Men is a little slow in getting started (necessarily so) but it's definitely worth sticking with it. I love Archie's first-person narration an Read more of this blog post »
