Bruce DeSilva
Jumping from the tight restrictions of journalism to the freedom afforded by prose is a tough transition to make, one that a lot of authors struggle with. And yet, Bruce DeSilva seems to have made the jump pretty easily, winning a pair of highly coveted crime fiction awards as well as earning himself a devoted following. From talking with him, it's not hard to understand why; DeSilva is funny, personable, and massively entertaining - if you doubt it, check out his rendition of the Old Testament as written by a journalist. It's a great talk with a man who's managed to come out great with not one but two careers, and has lots to say about both.
