Inhaltsangabe

We are who we say we are. You think you see me-you don't. You see us without knowing which of us you see. Your photographs, polygraphs, fingerprints, DNA hints, and courtroom theatrics don't say who we are. We are who we say we are! You are his brother, your twin. You see me but not him now, don't you? You are like us, identical twins, but you don't love your brother like I do mine. He is myself, and I am him. Today is your birthday, his too. Why aren't you with him? Don't lie to us. We know why. You can live with him but not without him. Too late to choose. We are your redemption. You have a price to pay today. On your birthday. His too. Boo who. We are who we are!

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

I am a retiring lawyer, a working author, and a preserving blogger. I was a full-time trial lawyer for thirty-two years in a large Phoenix firm. I was a part-time law professor for the last twenty-nine years. As of summer, 2023, I am writing, publishing, and blogging full time. My first book was a textbook published by the Arizona State Bar Association. My first novel was published by the University of New Mexico Press. I've written ten novels and eight nonfiction titles as of July 2023.From the day I entered law school, I've been reading cases, statutory law and writing about legal conundrums and flaws in our criminal and civil justice systems. I've always read novels, nonfiction, and historical fiction by great authors who were never corrupted by the staid habits of trial lawyers. I write long-form, interspersed with the occasional blog, op-ed, or essay. One of the unexpected benefits of reading the law is learning how to write about it. Somewhere along the trajectory from a baby lawyer to a senior one, I became intoxicated with blending nonfiction with fiction in books, rather than legal documents. After spending thirty years in courtrooms trying cases, I started writing aboutthem. That led to writing novels while borrowing from famous historical settings and lesser-known characters. My courtroom days were chock full of ideas, notions, and hopes about ultimately becoming an author. I organized and memorized critical information for judges, juries, and clients. Now I use that experience to write vivid fiction and immersive nonfiction. I moved away from trial practice to teaching law students how to use creative writing techniques to tell their client's stories, in short form.F. Scott Fitzgerald said, "All good writing is swimming under water and holding your breath." The same could be said of my transition from trying cases to writing crime fiction. I've been holding my breath for twenty years waiting for galley proofs and book reviews. Anais Nin spoke for all of us when she said, "We write to taste life twice."My first novel, The Gallup 14, won a coveted starred review from Publishers Weekly. I won a Spur Award from Western Writers of America in 2004 for my first nonfiction book ("Miranda, The Story of America's Right to Remain Silent"). I won the 2010 Arizona Book of the Year Award, The Glyph Award, and a Southwest Publishing Top Twenty award in 2010, for "Innocent Until Interrogated-The Story of the Buddhist Temple Massacre." My third nonfiction title ("Anatomy of a Confession-The Debra Milke Case") was highly acclaimed. My nonfiction title "CALL HIM MAC-Ernest W. McFarland-The Arizona Years" was widely and favorably reviewed. My latest nonfiction crime book, "Nobody Did Anything Wrong But Me, was published by Twelve Tables Press, one of America's most distinguished publisher of law books about important legal issues. No New York Times bestsellers, yet.
