Burl Barer Forgive the 4 year delay in responding! Research is/was my favorite part of being a true crime writer, and Fatal Beauty was my most difficult project in terms of research and gaining a sense of perspective. As my editor rightly noted “you seem to be drowning in the manuscript.” Her advice was simple and direct. Don’t read reviews as you will only remember the negative ones. Remember you write books for people who like your books and your style, not those who don’t. And finally, remember who you are and what you do. Just write this one with the same self assurance as the previous books. I’m pleased you enjoyed the book. If you liked that one, you will love the others 😋
