Ever since I was a kid I had this crazy urge to read and write. There is something about a book that can open up new worlds to you. When I was younger I read every Max Brand and Zane Grey western I could get my hands on. Then, I found Kenneth Roberts and his historical novels – Arundel, Northwest Passage, A Rabble in Arms. The detail he worked into them was mind blowing.
In college I was turned on to Frodo Baggins and the world of the Hobbits. I found Kurt Vonnegut downright inspiring. I still remember sitting in David Morrell’s classroom at the University of Iowa back in the late seventies, listening to his lectures on early American literature.
After graduation, I lost touch with my writing self for over thirty years, until I was brought face-to-face with this new-fangled thing they called Kindle. It reminded me of what I was all about.
In the years since then I have penned over twenty books, most of them with an e-commerce bent – How to sell on eBay, Amazon, and Fiver. I have written innumerable history books, started and given up on over a dozen novels.
The most amazing thing is, I can say whatever I want to say. I can write it today, put it out there for sale tomorrow, and within a day – sometimes two or three, someone else in this world is going to connect with what has been rattling around in my brain. How cool is that!
Indie Authors Toolbox is just that, a collection of gadgets and doodads you can whip out when you need them to spice up your writing; learn a little more about self-publishing; or connect with one troubled brain that is focused on figuring out this thing we call Indie Publishing.
Welcome aboard. Hold on because you are in for one hell of a ride.

The deranged murderers/&/or killers/serial that interested me the most are: William Sydney Porter (O. Henry), Servant Girl Annihilators; Villisca Ax Murders; Bertha Gifford Tango Murderer; Henry Spencer, aka Jinrich Skarupa
I do not receive any type of compensation for reading & reviewing free books from publishers & authors. Therefore, I am under no obligation to write a positive review, only an honest one.
Warning: This book contains descriptive accounts of extremely graphic adult content violence, murder, or expletive language &/or uncensored sexually explicit material (minor/adult verbal, psychological, emotional, physical & sexual abuse) which is only suitable for mature readers. It may be offensive or have potential adverse psychological effects on the reader. If you are especially sensitive to this type of material, it is strongly advised not to read any further.
An awesome book cover, great font & writing style. A very professionally written serial killer (individual criminal short stories) book. They were quite easy for me to read/follow from start/finish & never a dull moment. There were no grammar/typo errors, nor any repetitive or out of line sequence sentences. Lots of exciting scenarios, with several twists/turns & a huge description list of unique characters, settings, facts etc. to keep track of. They all could also make another great serial killer’s movie, a classroom PP presentation, or better yet a paid-per-view mini-TV series or even a documentary (Crime Museum; True Crime; American Crime Story; Investigative Discovery. There is no doubt in my mind this is an extremely easy rating of 5 stars.

History of some of the interesting cases in American history
This was basically a well-written narrative of a variety of interesting murderers from American history. Most are not particularly as gruesome as you would assume from the title, and America has plenty to choose from in its past. The book is an interesting read and moves along smoothly though, even if it is mainly just restating facts from other sources.

Most of these stories were new to me and very interesting. It's always intriguing to read about serial killers. It makes you wonder a lot about people.

Very obscure cases--mostly taken from newspaper articles in the late 1800/early 1900s, so the wriitng is very old fashioned
