Marine Mystery Author Pauline Rowson is to be involved in the CWA initiatives for 2011

I'm delighted that once again I am to be involved in the Crime Writers' Association (CWA) initiatives for 2011. These include National Crime Writing Week, formerly National Crime Fiction Week, which will run between June 13 and 19, 2011. The name change is designed to encompass both non-fiction and fiction.  The nationwide celebration of crime writing will see the culmination of the CWA Young Crime Writers' Competition, which was run by libraries and the CWA this year and attracted 600 entries nationwide.

I was the CWA judge for entries on the South Coast of England  and will once again judge entries for the region in 2011. It was a tough competition to judge because some of the entries were outstanding. I'm looking forward to seeing what next year brings.

In addition, during National Crime Writing Week, members of the CWA, including yours truly, will be taking part in events and workshops.

There'll be more about events, National Crime Writing Week and the CWA Young Crime Writers' Competition which will  launch on January 10 both here on my blog and on my web site in the coming weeks.

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.
