Good morning,

(It’s go to sleep time for me -lol) I wanted to share the resource books I’ve added to my writing library. *Yawn* 

Sorry, I’m a day sleeper. The book is written for writers who are going to need to know about forensics, crime scenes or about the coroner aspect.

The author brings out that the public views television programs about crime scene investigation and believes those television shows are depicting real-life crime scene investigation. So to the average reader sees  the science on those shows as reality–so this book explains the science used on many of those television shows for the writer who wants to come across to the reader as credible.

  He also brings out that real-life crime scene investigation labs and tools are not even close to the technology seen on television; and that most labs are in sore need of the basic elements of a television crime lab. But the readers will expect to read about the forensic science what they see on television.

 The book: Forensics: a guide for writers by D.P. Lyle, MD

Published by Writer’s Digest Books, an imprint of  F+W Publications

This book is a definite must for anyone writing a story that includes crime scenes and their investigations.  I bought mine at Borders Books. Check your book store or library.

Have a good day everyone!
