Richard Quinn

I am a writer of crime fiction. (I know I look like a Goth but don't hold that against me... :) )I am heavily influenced by the likes of James Sallis, Gil Brewer, Jim Thompson, W.R Burnett, William P. McGivern, Lawrence Block and George V. Higgins. To me, their work was sheer poetry. I fully intend to start writing novels, but for now, I'll be publishing a series of short stories. I will welcome your feedback. Thank you for reading my work.
