Too much to write about!

Most great books are about things that affect us all. Today there is so much happening in our world that it's hard to chose what to write about: the threat of a nuclear attack, the ascent of other countries to challenge the US place on the world stage, the desperate state of things in Puerto Rico after hurricane Irma, harassment of women in the workplace--shall I stop?
But you get the idea.. 
So the topic of my next book should be...? 
Help me fill in the blanks.

Cooper's Moon, Blood Moon Rising, and a Cold Copper Moon in some way or another deal with the issue of trafficking in sex. The exploitation of women and children by traffickers is one of the best-kept secrets today. Anther well-kept secret is that the US is one of the top countries of destination for trafficking.

Why I love to write # the hardest part

2/6/2017

1 Comment

 

I love to write because it gives me a chance to talk about current issues, big issues that concern us all. Cooper's moon deals with the trafficking of children as well as the kidnapping of Cooper's son. 

The hardest part of writing is to spend the  time editing what I have written. It has taken me a year (oh yeah, a year) to get it into good shape. 

But now--I am only a month away from releasing the book. Thank goodness! And thanks also for waiting.

    Richard's first two books in the Cooper Mystery Series, Cooper's Moon and Blood Moon Rising will have a grand finale coming out this summer, 2020...In this next book, A Cold Copper Moon, readers will learn what happened to Detective Cooper's son, Maxie. Remember? Max disappeared 8 years ago. I promise I'll give you ample clues, but the end provides quite a twist! Let's see if you can figure it out... I doubt it. No early readers have so far.
