Season 2 of the Word Crimes podcast opens with Scott Detrow reading "Luck" by Johnny Shaw, a short story originally published in Thuglit. If you're not familiar with Johnny's writing, Erik highly recommends that you check out his Anthony Award-winning novel BIG MARIA. Also excellent: DOVE SEASON and PLASTER CITY. And if you're not familiar with the magazine Thuglit, check out any issue at all. Every issue is full of powerful crime fiction.
