Halfway to Hell

I've always wanted to write a crime novel in the style of Mickey Spillane or Raymond Chandler and I've decided that this course would be the ideal opportunity to do just that. I've followed Charlotte's lead and written the cover blurb first, followed by the first chapter. If you're interested, I'm also posting it on WATTPAD as I go along. It's an interesting site. Let me know what you think.

    I've always liked noir too. I think this piece makes good use of the first person narrative as it frequently points out slight discordances between what is said and and meant on the one hand and what is heard and understood on the other.

    I love the way you write. It is so direct and uncoddled. I think I spotted that blonde on your facebook page. Am I right?
