On today’s show, we are going to Texas! My guest is Chief of Police and author Ronnie Ashmore. I believe that those of you who write cozy mysteries will find this episode especially valuable.
Chief Ashmore has been in law enforcement for of most his adult life and has been the chief of police in two small towns. Many writers have asked, “What’s it really like to be the chief of police in a small town?” Well, in today’s episode you will find out.
Chief Ashmore is also a writer who has published both fiction and nonfiction books. He shares with us his love for writing and his writing routine.
During this episode you will learn:
• What a “typical” day looks like for a chief of police for a department of five full-time police officers
• The relationship between his agency and other Texas law enforcement
• When the Texas Rangers would take over an investigation involving his agency
• When he would seek help from non-law enforcement, such as psychics
• How Ronnie has found success borrowing writing techniques from Steven King and James Patterson
All of this and more on today’s episode of the Cops and Writers podcast.
