More About the Author

Author of the Skip Langdon and Talba Wallis mystery series; Edgar-winner; New Orleans resident.

Also founder of www.booksBnimble.com, an electronic publishing start-up, and author of the YA paranormal adventure, CURSEBUSTERS!

Latest adventure:
I've reworked my writing class as an ebook called WRITING YOUR WAY (http://amzn.to/o6XN3T), with special emphasis on first chapters and marketing. You can see The Prose Nazi video below for an idea of my approach--i.e. flexible; designed to find YOUR best writing method, not force mine on you. We also have outtakes for your amusement. The third video, which I'll call GTFA, is a trailer for a fun parody book booksBnimble couldn't resist doing one rainy afternoon.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Mystery Novel, February 2, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: House of Blues (Skip Langdon Novels) (Mass Market Paperback)

I am not yet to the end of this book and I have already ordered two more books by Julie Smith. Her writing is excellent. I am at the edge of my seat and I can't wait to see how this turns out. I love a great murder mystery and Skip Langdon is a great character. Keep up the excellent work.

4.0 out of 5 stars Engrossing characters and a strong plot..., April 9, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: House of Blues (Skip Langdon Novels) (Mass Market Paperback)

... always make for the best mysteries. None of the characters are dull, Skip, the Hebert family and the always irrepressible Jimmie Dee keep you turning the pages. While the ending may not be a surprise to some readers, you'll have fun getting there. As an added bonus, Julie Smith's passages about New Orleans make you want to hop on the next fight.

I love Julie Smith books because of the great New Orleans feeling they give. The Skip Langdon books are my favorite.
