I Like Paper: Hardboiled Links from a Hardboiled Writer
After publishing her Mexican-wrestling detective story Hoodtown, Christa Faust built a solid reputation with the hardboiled set. Today, through her LiveJournal and Snakes on a Plane novelization, Faust has found an army of fans who write glowing tributes, like this young muscian named Matt Barr: medical.gif

"I am currently reading her novelization and I must say, “After reading the interview, and seeing all the photos of her, Christa Faust is the perfect person to write the book. It takes someone who is: a fan of Mexican wrestling, a pop culture fan, intelligent, fun, AND a beautiful woman, to write such a book."

Welcome to the conclusion of my interview with Christa Faust, part of my deceptively simple feature: Five Easy Questions. In the spirit of Jack Nicholson’s mad piano player, I run a serialized set of weekly interviews with writing pioneers—delivering some practical, unexpected advice about web publishing.

Jason Boog:
What are the crucial websites for a Christa Faust fan to check out? Where are your favorite writers/writing resources on the web?

Christa Faust:
My own site, of course...


Thrilling Detective is a great resource for all things hardboiled.
Writer’s blogs I read regularly include Poppy Z. Brite  and Sarah Weinman.

Other than that, I have to admit that I spend very little time on the Internet. What can I say? I like paper. Preferably cheap, yellowed pulp paper.
