What’s been happening:

After working as a writer since the mid-80s, I published my first mystery novel last year. It's called, "Rock & Roll Homicide." It's about a 27-year-old former musician, working his first murder case - the killing of a rock star. I played in my first band as a freshman at PSU and utilize this experience extensively in my storytelling. My second novel is scheduled for release in January 2010. Three of the suspects live together in an apartment I patterned after my junior year residence in University Park's Eastside. If you'd like more info on my novels go to www.rjmcdonnell.com.
