4 Mystery Novellas

May 6, 2025May 5, 2025Kristine Kathryn RuschLeave a Comment on 4 Mystery Novellas

I tend to write a lot of mystery novellas. They’re too long for traditional publishers, which makes them perfect for WMG. We can put the novellas in book form. Over the last year, a number of you have asked how to get my Derringer-award winning novella, “Catherine The Great,” and while you can get it […]

Recommended Reading List: January 2024

March 29, 2024March 29, 2024Kristine Kathryn Rusch1 Comment on Recommended Reading List: January 2024

I read a lot of books in January, but don’t have as many to recommend as I would have thought. I started one bestseller’s novel and quit because I knew exactly where it was going. (I glanced ahead, and yep. On rails.) I read another and was quite irritated because it didn’t do anything new […]

I Almost Said No

March 19, 2024Kristine Kathryn RuschLeave a Comment on I Almost Said No

…to writing this particular novella. I’m not even sure it was supposed to be a novella. (I kinda doubt it.) A book editor of mine, Lou Anders, asked me to take part in an anthology of his. Sideways in Crime is a really good anthology of alternate history crime stories. I was writing something else […]

A Crime Set In The Past…Or Maybe The Future

March 16, 2024Kristine Kathryn RuschLeave a Comment on A Crime Set In The Past…Or Maybe The Future

We started a Kickstarter on Tuesday of six of my standalone science fiction novellas. As I mentioned in the first post here on the site, I was a bit stunned to realize how long it had been since we did any discoverability work on any of these novellas. That includes letting you all know what […]

Recommended Reading List: December 2023

March 8, 2024March 8, 2024Kristine Kathryn RuschLeave a Comment on Recommended Reading List: December 2023

Yes, yes, this one is late. Yes, it’s filled with December recommendations. The reason it’s late, though, is because I read a lot in December and got behind on recording it. So there’s 3,000 words of recommendations here. And now, you get the introduction I wrote almost 2 months ago… My reading behavior is finally […]

As I mentioned on Tuesday, we’re doing a short Kickstarter that features six original pieces of short crime fiction.

I’m still behind on posting these, but I’m catching up, despite emergency vet visits and five dentist visits for me so far. (That’s so fun. Not.) I’m getting there, though.
