Flummery

 Alan Place - Noir Writer

What could I have been?

Tomorrow's World
Flummery is a term used by Rex Stout's detective Nero Wolfe, to describe rubbish. That is the most polite way I can describe the two people who scammed me fron November to June.
I have to admit to being amazed at the ammount of interest which sprang up this year, about my writing, at a time when I have given up. It does raise the question, what could I have been, if I had lived in the USA, and had the money for publicity?
When I began, writers I knew told me to wait 10 years to be recognised, I waited 15 years, then gave up hope

What could I have been?

 Alan Place - Noir Writer

I am an Award Winning Writer

                                                 Alan Place - Multi-Genre Writer

The two questions I get asked the most are what do I write, and what do I prefer to write?

The first question is best answered, what won't I write, as my writing covered most genre categories.

The two I areas I enjoy writing the most are Noir Crime, and Gothic. I enjoy the dark areas on Noir, where a person can do the wrong thing for the right reason.

I like Gothic, as I prefer old-style horror stories from the Victorian era.
