Writing Detective Stories for Beginner Writers

Hello Writer!

Welcome to the course where I show you how to create and write a wonderfully intriguing and enjoyable detective story! Don't make the same mistakes that so many novice authors make and create a detective story that keeps the reader invested!

My name is Matthew Dewey and I am a writer. It is hard to say when my passion for writing began, but if I can recall it all started back in primary school. A small child with not much to say, but plenty to write, or in early cases, scribble across a page. From there writing became a hobby, moving on to become a part-time job writing articles on various subjects from technology to programming. Suddenly, the spark was ignited and I wrote my first novel. From there I was hooked onto something that was akin to a calling.

Enough monologue, it is time to tell you what this course is worth to you. First, this course was created with the express intention to teach the fundamentals of planning and writing a detective story. In my rising through the writing world I found that information was handed freely, but not with enough dedication and forethought. The advice lacking and the examples poor. I decided to push through and after several years developed my own toolkit that is simple and multipurpose. I went on to make a career in writing and teaching others to write, providing useful and interesting information. As a result, I wrote several fantasy books and hundreds of stories, mysteries and detective fiction included, and I will show you how to do the same!

In addition to the research and books, I also write from experience, having written several articles on the subject, which you can find on my website.

I will show you how to:

• Choose between a realistic detective and a cliche detective

• Use various detective-related terms and phrases

• Describe realistic crime scenes and clues

• Employ the legal side of any detective story

• Devise the skills your detective needs

• Understand the police ranking system

• Make your detective likeable and investing

• Use the elements that make detective fiction great

• AND many tips along the way!
