Author Rod Sadler’s Journey to Mackinac Island Began With a Visit to the Father of a Serial Killer
It was an interesting trip. I traveled to Mackinac Island in the spring of 2021 to investigate the Island's only murder in modern times. It's a murder that remains unsolved to this day. I planned to stay at the same hotel where the victim, Frances Lacey, had stayed. I planned to walk the same route she walked and visit the murder scene. It would be a short trip but worthwhile. There was one thing I had to do first. I'd be passing Indian River, a … [Read more...]

Author Dan Lawton Ponders: “Who were really the good guys and the bad guys?”
As a kid, I found the Troubles hard to understand. The American media just didn't do a good job of explaining clearly who, exactly, were the opposing parties, and what things they wanted out of the war that was going on in Northern Ireland. At times, they made it seem like a religious war of sorts, which it wasn't. I read about Bobby Sands dying in 1981, in the U.S. media, which conferred a kind of stardom on him. But, to me, the coverage … [Read more...]

Author Rod Sadler Discusses His Visit to Mackinac Island
Mackinac Island, lying in the shadow of the world's largest suspension bridge, with its Victorian charm, no automobiles, horse drawn carriages, fudge, souvenir shops, bicycles, Fort Mackinac, and ore freighters passing on the Great Lakes, is often referred to as Michigan's crown jewel. Accessible only by boat or plane, it's a wonderful place where thousands of people flock to each summer. I dare say that every visitor has heard of the Grand … [Read more...]
Author Ron Chepesiuk Discusses Writing BAD HENRY: The Murderous Rampage of ‘The Taco Bell Strangler’
When I finished my last book, THE REAL MR. BIG: How A Refugee Became The UK's Most Notorious Cocaine Kingpin, also published by WildBlue, I really didn't have another book project in mind. I have been focusing on writing screenplays and was enjoying it, but I still have the itch to write another book. If you are thinking about making money from writing, there is no comparison between writing a book and a screenplay. Writing a low-budget … [Read more...]
Author Ron Chepesiuk on America’s Black Serial Killers
Popular mythology perpetuates the belief that serial killers are predominantly white. This stereotype is reinforced by media portrayals that primarily focus on white serial killers, further strengthening the myth. Surprisingly, during my research on BAD HENRY, I discovered a notable absence of comparative titles that explored the phenomenon of Black serial killers. There was not a single publication available on this subject. In reality, serial … [Read more...]
