As a writer, I admirer many other writers. Being a cop reporter at heart, my favorites are heavily — but not exclusively — skewed toward the crime beat.
- JimSheeler, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Final Salute, can be found at www.jimsheeler.com.
- Joseph Wambaugh, a former Los Angeles cop who traded his badge for a typewriter, can be found at www.josephwambaugh.net or at www.facebook.com/JosephWambaugh.
- Michael Connelly, a highly decorated veteran of the Los Angeles Times and other papers, can be found at www.michaelconnelly.com
- Erik Larson, another former newspaper man who weaves together intricate tales of the best and worst of human nature, can be found at www.eriklarsonbooks.com.
