And my apologies to John--it's probably not funny to him when people confuse his name with other writers with the same last name.<br />r/SteveSteve Moorehttp://stevenmmoore.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-48352537042436970802011-04-19T17:04:44.926-04:002011-04-19T17:04:44.926-04:00Hi everyone!

I try to make mine good and look to read other writer's that offer them up.<br />That said, I think a good story in the mystery genre has to have a great plot with nice twists and turns while a thriller needs both suspense and action, but I'm not an expert on the first. But, as Sandra said, beautiful imagery is Steve Moorehttp://stevenmmoore.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-43977923544866008842011-04-15T15:50:20.966-04:002011-04-15T15:50:20.966-04:00I think my benchmark is if I find myself saying, &...I think my benchmark is if I find myself saying, "I wish I'd written that!" <br /><br />Actually I have more trouble with the deliberately flat and unembellished prose that some writers think is appropriate for gritty or noirish books.Sheila Connollyhttp://www.sheilaconnolly.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-12907652158576292552011-04-15T14:25:30.733-04:002011-04-15T14:25:30.733-04:00Sheila, the key for me is the distinction between ...Sheila, the key for me is the distinction between self-consciously "literary" prose that's overwritten (or overwrought) and the organic freshness of imagery from a really good writer, like the examples you've given here. I don't think that kind of writer has to weigh and measure--I trust him or her not to spend two paragraphs describing the gun being held on the protagonist Elizabeth Zelvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944424094949207841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-3417544572756901562011-04-15T09:22:52.273-04:002011-04-15T09:22:52.273-04:00I love beautiful language and striking images wher...I love beautiful language and striking images wherever I find them, and I think it's the language that lifts a crime novel above the ordinary and makes reviewers comment that it "transcends the genre."
