Author Colin Campbell Discusses His Inspiration For Writing
I remember a quote from the Spielberg movie, Always, where Audrey Hepburn tells the deceased pilot Richard Dreyfuss that the inspiration he felt when he was learning to fly was breathed into him and that he was there to do the same for the next pilot. Divine breath. Now, I’m not saying that Richard Dreyfuss breathed inspiration into my writing but we all get inspiration from somewhere. For writers it usually comes from other writers and their … [Read more...]
Colin Campbell: “Once A Cop Always A Cop”
“Once a cop always a cop.” A common phrase that does have some merit, although I know a few retired police officers who avoid being an ex-cop like the plague. For me? More later. “Write what you know.” Another common phrase, but one that I believe has considerably less merit. Did Stan Lee know about climbing buildings and slinging webs after being bitten by a spider? Did George Lucas have experience of a galaxy far, far away? I think the … [Read more...]

Colin Campbell
I am a Yorkshireman, born and bred. From a working class family in a one-up one-down, back-to-back terrace house in Leeds. No electric until my parents had it installed, and even then only one ceiling mounted light fitting in each room. Any appliances had to be plugged into the light socket so if they wanted to listen to the radio they had to do it in the dark. No television, that came later. But I never wanted for anything and never felt badly … [Read more...]
Check Out This Excerpt From Andy Caldwell’s ROOM 1203: O.J. Simpson’s Las Vegas Conviction
As we turned down the hall toward O.J.’s suite, three more surveillance detectives stood behind a pillar, visiting with each other while waiting for the two surveillance detectives who were closer to the room to signal that the target was moving. They were working with the Palms security and had a room in the same hall as Simpson’s, so the hall could be monitored without a detective just waiting for Simpson to come out of his room. As Rod, … [Read more...]

Author Peter Eichstaedt Discusses The Border Wars That Play A Large Part In BORDERLAND
To write Borderland, I drew heavily on the tortured relationship America has had and continues to have with Mexico. Having survived our recent exhausting and sometimes repugnant presidential election, we all know that the current occupant of the White House used border security as one of the pillars of his campaign. It’s a legitimate and very real concern, although the proposed solution is impractical. When I researched my nonfiction book … [Read more...]
