The June edition of The Big Thrill

For the June edition of The Big Thrill, I had the opportunity to interview two people I admire:

I met D.P. Lyle in the hallways of ThrillerFest in 2010, so I jumped at the opportunity to talk to him about his newest book, Sunshine State, and how he intertwines thriller with humor.

The first novel I read from Steven Savile was Silver. It had been recommended to me by a then-mentor. I was enthralled with the tale, the scope. Then later I discovered he also wrote novels for two of my favorite TV serials, Doctor Who and Torchwood. It's not surprised that when he submitted his newest, White Peak, I made sure the editor knew I was interested, even when it meant a second assignment for the month. The things you do for the love of writing!
There's also a catch, it turns out Steven novel was released under the alias of Ronan Frost.

Enjoyable interview, and they even asked me to share some pictures from the time I visited New Orleans for the research.

Honduras and The Big Thrill

In the September edition of the e-zine published by the International Thriller Writers I was honored to participate in three feature articles.

The first one, a guided tour of my beloved country. This time I refer to the capital city of Tegucigalpa and its predecessor Comayagua.

I first read the work of Brenda Novak a few years ago, with the first entry in her romance series Whiskey Creek, now I was privileged to read an ARC of her newest novel HER DARKEST NIGHTMARE with a new set of characters. Now, this time a full time thriller.

Clive Cussler and his Dirk Pitt adventures inspired my love for the thriller and adventure genre, it was probably him that I learned to always put a prologue. Also through his spin-off series I met the work of Paul Kemprekos, and now I read his solo work. THE MINOAN CIPHER is an excellent adventure thriller.

The ITW's Thriller Roundtable

As you know, I coordinate the Thriller Roundtables for the ITW. It is a nice gig that allows me to interact with many wonderful authors from around the globe.

For the month of July, and as part of the Tenth Anniversary of Thriller Fest, we organized the topics around one of the main events of the fest: meeting the agents.

We have four wonderful topics that will be discussed by top-notch agents. Here is the list:

Jul 6 - 12	What is the most common mistake writers make in approaching an agent?
Jul 13 -  19	What is the added-value of agents in the self-publishing model?
Jul 20 - 26	Do agents have regrets about the story that got away?
Jul 27 - Aug 2	When should a writer change agents? Are agents wary of writers with low sales seeking such a change?

The first topic is already open and the agents participating are: Janet Reid, Jennifer Weltz, Albert Longden, Kimberly Cameron, Helen Heller, Michelle Wolfson, Alec Shane, Beth Phelan and John Raab.
