Translating the Police Role to Realistic Fiction
with Wesley Harris
Thursday, May 2, 2024 at 7:00 p.m.
Former police chief Wesley Harris created “Write Crime Right” ten years ago to
help writers create realistic, plausible crime fiction in any genre. He has helped
scores of writers avoid the common pitfalls in writing about law enforcement
officers and the crimes they investigate.
If you want to write credibly about cops and crimes, join us May 2. We will
explode some of the myths about police work and address many of the common
pitfalls writers commit in writing about cops and police work. Have your police-
and crime-related questions ready!
In addition to a law enforcement career spanning over 40 years, Wesley Harris has written professionally for over three decades, authoring several books and many articles on police procedure and American history. His work has appeared in national magazines like POLICE, Law Officer, Law & Order, Wild West, and America’s Civil War. He serves on the criminal justice faculty of the University of Phoenix. In addition to providing consulting and editing services to writers, Harris is an experienced online instructor. His police career included many death investigations and successful murder prosecutions.
