Author John Nance On The “Writer’s Curse”
I have to laugh when someone looks at my list of books written over the past few decades and jumps to the conclusion that I am incredibly disciplined.

I wish I was capable of such … [Read more...]
LOCKOUT’s John J. Nance Discusses How He Comes Up With His Bestselling Book Plots

Frank C. Girardot Jr. on Co-Writing BETRAYAL IN BLUE With Burl Barer and Ken Eurell
Working on the true crime book “Betrayal in Blue” reminded me of Charlie Brown from the comics. A classic Charlie Brown gag involves his nemesis Lucy and a football. She promises to hold it. He attempts to kick it. Inevitably Lucy pulls the ball away and poor Charlie lands flat on his back. There are those who say Charlie’s failed effort defines insanity.
