Back in Japan

Tokyo Sogen was so pleased with the response to their edition of SHANKS ON CRIME that they bought the rights to put out another collection of my stories.  THE RED ENVELOPE AND OTHER STORIES was released last week.  As best I can make out the Japanese title reads:  SOLVE MYSTERIES AT THE COFFEE SHOP ON HOLIDAYS.  Why not?

Besides the title story, the book contains: The Accessory, Brutal, The Center of the Universe, Crow's Lesson, The Roseville Way, Shooting at Firemen, Train Tracks, and Two Men One Gun,

More Misadventures!

Today was the cover reveal for THE MISADVENTURES OF NERO WOLFE, a book of parodies and pastiches about Rex Stout's great character, edited by Josh Pachter.  Actually publication date won't be until April.  I understand that my story, "The Damned Doorbell Rang," will be the closer.

I have been a fan of Stout since fifth grade so it is an honor to be in this book.
