The novel I'm working on -- and will begin to post chapters from very soon -- is a murder mystery. Why write a murder mystery? Well, the most important reason is because I like mysteries; I've always read them, and I've always enjoyed them. It also doesn't hurt that mystery is the most popular fiction genre, so it should be easier to find and build an audience for a mystery than for other types of novels.
If the novel is a good one, of course.
Which is my plan.
The novel is called Fog Count.
A one-paragraph synopsis of the novel:
Joshua Cardiff, a police chief in a small Louisiana bayou town -- a town where prison is the only industry -- faces violent jurisdictional disputes from crooked federal agents, black magic curses from a self-styled voodoo priestess, and threats from a variety of unexpected sources as he investigates a bizarre and gruesome murder.
It will, hopefully, be the first book in the Joshua Cardiff series.
