Last Word with the Captain | Forensic Files

the this conversation was with Publishers um and I was educated and saddened at the same time
to learn that true crime books might be a thing of yester year not I'm I'm working currently working on a new book
project only to learn that uh not many people want to publish true crime books anymore because
there's as far as the Publishers are concerned there's nobody buying them which is which is really sad for me cuz
that's how I grew up loving and consuming True Crime yeah but look it'll just become where people
self-publish and what's wrong with that you self-publish and if you have an audience
people will buy and then you cut out the middleman you cut out all the well but it's still sad that I mean
because the it is sad if if people were buying them we wouldn't be have you know
they they would still be they would still be producing true crime books and want to produce them
