Cops Writing Crime - 4 new Squad members.
Another 4 colleagues (all American) join The Squad today, bringing its numbers to 424.
That's 424 cops and ex-cops (and other law enforcement types, plus some PIs) who have taken to writing crime fiction. You won't get more realistic crime tales than those from this Squad!
We have joining us today:
1. Mark Beckner who served with the Boulder PD in Colorado.
2. Kathy Bennett who served with the LAPD.
3. David Dean who served with the Avalon PD in New Jersey.
4. George P. Norris who served with the NYPD.
Our Squad now consists of:
287 American, 69 British, 18 Australian, 18 Canadian, 5 French,
4 New Zealander, 3 Finnish, 2 Dutch, 2 Swedish,
2 Irish, 1 Bahamian, 1 Norwegian, 1 Danish
1 Italian, 1 Czech, 1 Russian, 1 Hungarian,
1 Spaniard, 1 Pakistani, 1 Chinese, 1 Brazilian, 1 Indian,
2 "International" (listed as this due to current serving officer requirements)
I'll keep adding more as I come across them, and if you know of any others please feel free to drop me a line.
Check out The Squad:
Also: Cops Writing Crime
And please remember, my list is only for CRIME FICTION - not all the true crime and/or memoir writing by cops and ex-cops that's out there (as good as so much of that is).
Cheers,
ABP

Hi Ian,
Lovely to hear from you. You are already in the group (#197 - on my project page on my website). I tried to put a link in, but Goodreads rejected my draft message! No links allowed apparently.
Looks like you have updated your website address, however? If so, I'll change it on the project page. Also, I am putting together a Volume 2 of the anthology for Cops Writing Crime. Would you be interested in being included with a short story? If so, let me have an email address and I'll send you the project brief. Cheers, Andrew
