CrimeFest over the years

For the last few years May has always meant a trip to CrimeFest when I have appeared on panels with my fellow crime writers.  This year, though, 2015, sadly I was unable to attend because of a prior personal commitment so I missed catching up with my contemporaries and meeting up with crime fiction fans from around the World.

Crimefest is a crime fiction convention which follows the format of US conventions and includes interviews, panels, and a gala dinner.  It is held annually in Bristol, UK and attracts audiences from around the World. 


To compensate for my absence in 2015 here is a glimpse at my CrimeFests of the past!

It is often difficult to find a new author and one whose novels you think you might enjoy but libraries are a great place for dipping your toe in the water, or rather for letting your fingers do the choosing and there is also a handy little book in UK libraries that can help with that.  It's called Who Else Writes Like? Reviewers have compared the Inspector Andy Horton novels to American writers, Ed McBain and Joseph Wambaugh and their British counterparts John Harvey and Peter Robinson both of the latter mentioned in the directory Who Else Writes Like? My crime novels are also compared to those written by Colin Dexter, Ann Cleeves, Robert Barnard, Graham Hurley, Dorothy Simpson and Neil White.   In addition, there is also a good website called Fantastic Fiction where it is suggested that if you like Peter James and Stephen Booth then you might also like the Inspector Andy Horton and the Art Marvik Mystery Thrillers.
