Though I write military thrillers and not crime novels, I thought I might learn a lot from the annual Writers’ Police Academy in Greensboro, NC. I did not come away disappointed! Many thanks to Lee Lofland, the Guilford County Sheriff’s Office, Greensboro Police, Guilford Technical Community College, and everyone else associated with this event. Great opportunity for authors to learn how law enforcement professionals get it done. In this photo, a bomb tech suits up to demonstrate his skills.
