Home Page

I used to have my two domains, ollerman.com and rickollerman.com, redirect to this blog. Since I need to create an actual website, I did the natural thing and created a single page as a placeholder. There's a tad more info about my upcoming books and hopefully you'll find it looks pretty. Possibly scary. Let me know.

Pod People

I recently did an interview with Dean Abbott for his Mystery Writers Podcast. Sadly, I had only slept for about an hour and a half and would be shocked if there were a high degree of coherence, at least on my end. It can be heard here

My first two books, Turnaround and Shallow Secrets are available for preorder at Amazon here..



I love not picking titles. I hate picking titles. I've come up with some really good ones but those are forgotten as soon as I hear a loud noise. Or the sound of someone speaking. You don't want to know what happens when a dog barks. Anyway, preorders are good because it tells the publisher he should print more than four copies of the book. Okay, maybe not four, but you know.

I have two pieces appearing in the NoirCon program this year, a short story and an essay on the writer Jada Davis. Their programs are printed in book form and sold at least through Amazon. I'll be at Bouchercon in Long Beach in November. Now when I meet people and they ask the Bouchercon version of "Come here often?" ("How many Bouchercons have you been to?"), I can say, "More than one." Sometimes answers like that are enough.
