WRITERS ON THE BEAT: Forensic Analyst and Acclaimed Author Sheila Lowe talks PSYCHOLOGICAL SUSPENSE

Forensic handwriting examiner and multi-published author Sheila Lowe steps into the Interrogation Room to clear up a few things about her OWN writing and craft. She’s been a recognized expert and nonfiction author in her field for more than four decades, and her Handwriting Analyzer software has been in use around the world since the 1990s. Sheila also instructs forensic analysis courses at UC-Riverside and UC-Santa Barbara, regularly lectures on the topic in the US, UK, and Canada, and is the current president of the nonprofit American Handwriting Analysis Foundation. Sheila also writes the award-winning Forensic Handwriting Mystery fiction series, which features the fictional character Claudia Rose. She describes the series as "medium-boiled," warns that they are “definitely not cozies,” and Sheila personally thinks of her fictional novels as psychological suspense. In this episode, Sheila and Writers On The Beat host Gavin Reese discuss the craft of writing psychological thrillers and suspense; advice for adding forensic analysts in fiction; Parents of Murdered Children; and researching crime fighters.
