A Miami native and retired homicide investigator should have plenty to write about, and I do. I've been freelance writing for magazines (most legal/law enforcement trade markets) for the last 34 years, and in 2021 finished "The Ten Must-Haves to Be a Great Detective" (Amazon - eKindle and paperback).

I decide to join (modern) civilization

Let's face it, self-publishing can't be done with a dinosaur mentality.
For me, this means that I have to fully embrace the wonders of social media and use it to create buzz about my book. Don't get me wrong, I've been using Facebook and Twitter (X) for years, and I'm comfortable with it. I have, however, ignored TikTok and Instagram, until now. Recent research has taught me that TikTok is an effe Read more of this blog post »

“We all sat there, silently looking out over an expanse of floating clothes, body parts, and an occasional length of twisted metal trapped in between some weeds, as jet fuel trailed gently across our nostrils.
