Sloan Richman writes mystery and crime fiction. Originally from Brooklyn, New York, Sloan now lives across the East River in Manhattan with his wife, son, and crime-solving* cat. He works as a technical writer by day, but at night, prowls the mean streets of the city looking for wrongs to write. He graduated from University of Pennsylvania with a bachelor’s degree in chemistry and received a Master of Fine Arts degree in Writing Popular Fiction from Seton Hill University, both of which have been helpful in plotting murders.** Small Town Symphony (in Four Deadly Movements) is the first in the Daniel Cole/Nat Gilliam music and mystery series. His short stories, including the Detective Oswald Cox mysteries, have appeared or are forthcoming in Mystery Tribune, Big Smoke Pulp, Bright Flash Literary Review, Sci-Fi Lampoon, and The Bookends Review.

* Note: In this context, crime=“why isn’t anyone feeding me now?” and solving=“I will bite you until you feed me.”
** plotting fictional murders. Just wanted to make that clear. Fictional. Really.
