Crime Writers' Panel Welcomes J.T. Patten

April 9, 2014 - PRLog -- "When I started writing, I had a lot of assistance from some very accommodating authors.  Joining the CWP allows me to give back a bit of my expertise or experience, and to also learn from others.  The bottom line is that, as writers, we all want our readers to have the most authentic experience possible while reading thrillers.  If another writer can help me better express my ideas and I can help them visualize a criminal or terrorist event, it is a win for industry, authors, and book lovers."

On March 25, 2014, J.T. made his first appearance on Crime Writers' Panel, hosted by Marguerite Ashton and William Cannon, where the show streamed live using Hangouts on Air on Google+.

“We're excited to have J.T. on board. His expertise in intelligence and special operations opens the door to writers from many genres to participate in the Crime Writers’ Panel.”

J.T. Patten is a former intelligence and special operations advisor, and author of black ops thriller, Safe Havens: Shadow Masters.  Patten has laced his dark novel with experience in operational planning and intelligence tradecraft, as well as including investigative forensics and sensitive site exploitation techniques.

The result is an intense story that crosses genre lines in crime, espionage, and military fiction, which is what occurs in daily life--often unbeknownst to the general public.

The show, Collecting the Evidence: Indoor vs Outdoor Crime Scene can be found on YouTube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-QUxZ_BJco&list=UUK9IcfFczd6-18_ibKtIN-A&feature=share&index=1
