"Anatomy of Evil"
Dr. Michael Stone's new book, “The Anatomy of Evil”, includes a segment about Jessica Schwarz ("No One Can Hurt Him Anymore" by Carol J. Rothgeb).
It is set to be released July 28, 2009, and can be pre-ordered at Amazon....
I had the opportunity to read several of the chapters last summer and it is an amazing read!

I consider it quite an honor that he has read both of my books!
He placed William Sapp (the serial killer in "Hometown Killer") at 18 on his scale....
That's as close as I've ever been to someone like that....
I sat in the gallery right behind the defense table during his trial....

I worked with a guy who ended up in prison for shooting a man in the back of the head, execution style, out in a field. You could have knocked me over with a feather.
I had actually given the murderer a ride home from a bar one time when we had a Christmas party and he got to drunk to drive.
You just never know.  Evil is definately a master of disguise.

Wow! That is scary stuff!
Reminds me of Ann Rule working with Ted Bundy on a suicide hotline...

Yes, I co-authored "No One Can Hurt Him Anymore" with Scott Cupp, the prosecutor in the case....
My first book was "Hometown Killer"....
Both true crime....
I have never met Dr. Stone in person, but we email fairly often....
Sorry about any confusion!

Thanks for the heads up C.J.
I'll get it on order right away. I've watched all the Most Evil series. Stone is very astute.
Have you given any thoughts about a new book?

If you get the chance to, please tell Dr. Stone that I appreciate all the work that he does. |
Will do!

You're welcome!
Dr. Stone is great...
I am currently trying my hand at fiction...
A crime novel.....
It's real different than writing true crime.....
But it gives me a chance to use my imagination!

I'm going to put your books on my Christmas list. Let us know when your fiction is done, I bet I can speak for most here, you already have a bunch of buyers.
BTW I've watched all of the "Most Evil" episodes. Dr. Stone IS great!
PS: I stole a smiley from you, hope you don't mind.

CJ, I have both your books and I can say to anyone here, if you haven't read/bought them......... DO SO!!! They are great!
Make sure you have LOTS of tissues handy for "No One Can Hurt Him Anymore". I needed them by page 2.
I still think they should make a movie of it. And I STILL think the evil step mom looks like Kathy Bates.
(and I STILL haven't sent them to you for your autograph but I will someday, lol)
Good Luck on the new one (although I DO like the true crime books best).

That's great.... Thank you!
Just for that, you can steal ALL my smileys!
I'll let everyone know about the new book....
It's a fairly new project right now...

Wow! Thank you!
Kathy Bates would be PERFECT as Jessica!
I understand about liking true crime the best....
I never thought I would be writing fiction (unless it was a children's book)....
It's definitely a new experience!

"Anatomy of Evil"
Exciting news!
Dr. Michael Stone's editor is going to send me the galleys of "Anatomy of Evil"!
Dr. Stone suggested to her that I would be a good person to send the manuscript to, for my comment and--if I feel so inclined--a blurb....
"Since you are in the front lines of those who know about the bad guys".....
I got goose bumps when I got his email!

I received my hardback copy of "The Anatomy of Evil" last Friday....
Not only is Jessica Schwarz featured in Chapter Eight....
"No One Can Hurt Him Anymore" is mentioned in Dr. Stone's notes...
And I am mentioned in the acknowledgments!
What an honor!!!

Also, they used the blurb I wrote about "The Anatomy of Evil" under "What People Are Saying" on the Barnes and Noble website....
