“I write crime novels, so yes, of course I think of myself as a crime writer; how could I not?  I also write poetry, and think of myself as a poet. And as a literary writer. A musicologist. A biographer. My model’s more the European—someone like [Raymond] Queneau, who wrote novels, poems, essays and popular songs, was a phenomenal editor… He didn’t have to check one or the other on his dance card. It’s the nature of creative work to push at boundaries." Songs, Reading, James Lee Burke, Raymond Chandler, Long Legged Fly, Private Detective, Writer, Fiction

Willnot, a slim 208 pages, came out June 21, 2016, from Bloomsbury. The novel is "a violent story set in a sleepy Southern place with a weird, dark gravity that seems to hold even the wildest atrocities close." Writes critic Phillip Martin, " Its conscience is a gay general practitioner and surgeon named Lamar Hale, who in a lesser book would be the sort of intrepid hobbyist sleuth who saves the day. But this is not that sort of book . . . " John Turner, Worth Reading, Worth, Book Worth Reading, Crime Fiction, Types Of Fiction, General Practitioner

Taxi Driver vs.Drive: Taxi Driver (1976, by Martin Scorsese) vs. Drive (2011, by Nicolas Winding Refn).
Low-key, sleek and sophisticated, Drive provides the visceral pleasures of pulp without sacrificing art. It's cool and smart. An unapologetically commercial picture that defies all mainstream action filmmaking trends. The look is artfully stylized, influenced by classic film noir; the mood is dark; the performances nuanced; and the story unnervingly exciting...almost sickeningly suspenseful.
