Shred of Evidence

I’ve been published in Lily and The American Drivel Review and have a story forthcoming in Little Sisters, Vol. 1.

My first novel, Dirt Sweet, was published by ECW Press in Toronto last year and will be published in the US in trade paperback by Harcourt in spring ‘08. At the same time, Harcourt will publish my second novel, Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere. I’ve had a few flash fictions posted at Muzzleflash (and one in Out of the Gutter #2), and a short story of mine will be appearing in an upcoming Demolition Magazine.

Neal Marks is a law-abiding citizen who pays all his taxes, observes every traffic regulation, and never bets with bookies. Writing crime fiction is as close as he gets to lawlessness. He and his wife live in Encino, California. You can reach him at nealmarks2000@aol.com.

I practiced law in Chicago for many years before giving it up recently to write fiction full-time. My short crime fiction has appeared or is scheduled to appear in publications that include Crime and Suspense, Spinetingler Magazine, FUTURES Mystery Anthology Magazine and Coffee Cramp eZine. I have other short stories in the mill and am working on my first mystery novel.

“The Living Will of Rupert Ames” marks writer Art Montague’s happy return to short crime/mystery fiction after a fairly successful run at True Crime publications for Altitude Publishing Canada Ltd. Now the trick is to balance both fiction and non-fiction and make a living in the bargain. “The Living Will…” made its print debut at Detective Mystery Stories in Issue #27 (July 2002).

Nicole M. McClain started getting immersed in the creative arts at an early age. After various stints with painting drawing, singing, dancing, playing a musical instrument and acting, it was only a matter of time before she attempted the written word. So far, this art form seems to be sticking. Nicole currently lives in Northern California, but has also called Maryland, Pennsylvania and Ohio home. She loves cooking, reading, attending arts events, enjoying nature and writing short fiction reviews for Tangent Online. This is her first fiction publication (with two more pending).
