I'm missing the little "Reply" buttons.<br /><br />LJ, with your journalism background, interviews would be a perfect way for you to gather information. <br /><br />Jenny, I agree that chatting is an important element. That's where I pick up slang that wouldn't normally be in a reference book.<br /><br />Thanks, Jodie and David.

They provide personal insight that you can't find anywhere else.<br /><br />I also attended our local citizens police academy, which I highly recommend for crime fiction authors.L.J.
