Pablo D’Stair’s crime fiction experiment moves along

Pablo D’Stair’s novella this letter to Norman Court, which was serialized across several blogs over the past few weeks (including this one) wrapped up today with the 22nd and final installment over at David Cranmer’s blog, Education of a Pulp Writer. Thus wraps up one of the more interesting crime fiction-related happenings of the year.

Did you fall behind? Did you never catch on in the first place? Never fret. There are several ways to go about reading this compelling work. First, you can skip blog to blog like the rest of us did and follow the story. Pablo offers a handy guide here. Or, if you can’t stand the thought of clicking through all of those sites (though their owners would surely thank you), Pablo makes it even easier: You can download an ebook of this letter to Norman Court at Smashwords, for free. That’s right — for damn near any possible ereader there is out there, Pablo’s novella is free.

But that’s not all. The book is part of a five-book set, called the Trevor English Series, and the second in the series, Mister Trot from Tin Street, also is available in ebook form from SmashWords. Get it here.

The third of the series, Helen Topaz, Henry Dollar, will be serialized starting the first week of July at Thunderdome, with sections posted twice weekly.

Last but not least, for those of us who still revel in words printed on honest-to-goodness pages, Pablo has what you need. Paperback copies of the first two novellas straight from Amazon will be available for $3.95 as of July 1.

That’s a lot of reading to be had at a great price, no matter your preferred format. So, log on and get reading.
