Crime doesn't pay...enough!
It seems there was a thread on this a while back in
rec.arts.mystery,
where (I think) Robert Randisi listed several good writers
who seemed to
have been dropped by their publishers in the last few years,
or simply
decided to pull the plug for other reasons. The body count
included
(it's been a while so I may be wrong, here) Rob Kantner,
Stephen
Greenleaf, Jerome Doolittle and Benjamin Schutz, all of whom
are medium
level (in terms of success), writers, but damn fine
writers,
nonetheless. If any of these guys are still slugging away,
gee, let us
know, and I'm so glad I was wrong.
