We don’t know whether it’s a retro response to today’s media, but there seems to be a lot of interest in books that get made one at a time. We’ll hear from Jacob Samuel, a fine-arts publisher whose limited-edition books are so carefully crafted they’re considered museum pieces even when they’re new. And we also welcome David Drum, a journalist, novelist, and poet who makes and sells his own hand-crafted editions. #amwriting #selfpub #podcast

What IS a handmade book? Are there different types? How did you come to do them, and how do you market them?

Our Guest Post is the pilot episode from the forthcoming radio series The Case Files of Belliver Holmes, titled "The Game is Now Afoot." #mysterythriller #podcast #radiodrama

Sherlock Holmes had a sister — Belliver Holmes. She was born after Mycroft and before Sherlock. Belliver was also a detective, but unlike her famous brother, she solved the supernatural and occult crimes of the Victorian Era.

The Case Files of Belliver Holmes series is produced as an exciting retro radio-style adventure with full cast, music, and sound effects. This is the first in a series of audio adventures from our friends and colleagues at Runkee Productions.

Host Gerald Everett Jones and his co-hosts Cheyenne Cockrell and Thomas Page discuss the mystery genre with special guest author Marvin J. Wolf. Wolf is the author of the Rabbi Ben mysteries: For Whom the Shofar Blows, A Scribe Dies in Brooklyn, and A Tale of Two Rabbis. #amwriting #selfpub #mysterythriller #podcast #booklovers

Marv responds to our questions, including:

How does mystery fiction differ from true crime? What is a police procedural? Do all mysteries fall into that category? Have you ever come across a story that you thought was too painful or too troubling to write? How does the training and skillset of a journalist inform the work of a mystery novelist? Is it a truism that social media is killing journalism these days? A Scribe Dies in Brooklyn is full of Judaic scholarship. Did you just absorb all that detail over the years, or was it a research project in itself?
