"Several years ago Ross Browne critiqued my manuscript, Poison Pen (a mystery introducing handwriting expert, Claudia Rose), which was the first really helpful input I'd had. While it was still a long road to publication, Ross' comments helped me understand and implement important changes that needed to be made throughout the book.

Bottom line, last month Poison Pen received a starred review in Publishers Weekly. As a result, Penguin has purchased the first two books in the series from Capital Crime Press, the small publisher who took it on.

So, I wanted to let you know that you do really good work and you are free to quote me. I've recommended your book [Self-Editing for Fiction Writers] to many writers and have listed it as recommended reading for attendees at the upcoming Book Passage Mystery Conference, where I'll be on the faculty."
