The debut issue of Crooked is out now and I have a story in it. It is called 'The Brass Ring' and is a real throwback to the 30's and 40's noir style (I tried anyway). Crooked looks to be a great place for crime fiction. They publish longer stories and the debut issue is chock full of some really good ones. 

If you read it and like it you can vote for it at Eastern Standard Crime which is the home site of Crooked's publisher. 

Here's hoping that 2009 is a great year for getting short stories out there and possibly publishing one of the novels. Jennifer Kohl and I are working hard to get our book out there (okay, she's doing all the work but I'm here for moral support). It's too good to keep under wraps.
