On Other Blogs #23
Ben Peek has had a new story published in "Aurealis #37" titled "John Wayne (As Written by a Non-American)". On his blog he responds to an implied request from a reviewer of the piece, providing his motivation and his plans for a series of stories in a similar vein.
Marshall Zeringue subjects Penni Russon and her novel, Breathe, to the page 69 test on his weblog "Campaign for rhe American Reader". It's quite decent really.
Peter Rozovsky is a big fan of Peter Temple's novel, The Broken Shore, and has been discussing it on his weblog, "Detectives Beyond Borders."

Thanks for the mention. I know I've mentioned this elsewhere, but who can keep track of these things? In any case, it can't hurt to remind readers that I'm starting to see signs that Temple is making inroads in the U.S., Canada and the German-speaking world. He deserves the success, and it should be at least a small sign of encouragement for fans who worry about how Australian crime fiction will play overseas.
