Welcome to Writer's Detective!

This site is devoted to helping writers with the ​cop stuff in crime fiction.   
My name is Adam and I'm a police detective in California.  
I am the host of the weekly Writer's Detective Bureau podcast, which you can find on most podcasting platforms.

I regularly send out emails of actually useful curated content for writers of crime fiction, called the Writer's Detective APB.
​We also have an active, friendly, and supportive Writer's Detective Q&A community on Facebook.  Join us!


"As an author with no formal police training, I knew nothing about police procedure. Researching on my own could only take me so far. Adam put my mind at ease and gave detailed answers to questions concerning my protagonist, a big-city homicide detective. He even threw in a couple of ideas I hadn't thought of! Police weaponry, vehicles, crime scene procedures, making an arrest, police lingo, working with agencies like the FBI, the emotional impact of a violent crime scene - any question I had, Adam got me the straight dope. Thanks to Adam's expertise, my novel went from good to kick-ass!"
