True Crime CAN Pay

True Crime sells, and you may as well be the one to write it. Writing Bestselling True Crime and Suspense is the best tool on the market today for future crime writers. Tom Byrnes--the author--shows you how to get a story, decide if it's right for you and for the Reader, then leads you to finding more information and ultimately to writing the story. But wait! There's more (no, not Gingsu Knives)... he goes even further and tells you how to sell it. If that weren't enough, the back of the book has passages from other well known True Crime writers/producers. You get the picture, now buy the book!
