Frank Zafiro, author of The Ride Along

The Thriller Zone

On today's 67th Episode of The Thriller Zone, I'm pretty stoked to have Frank Zafiro on the podcast. Frank is a former cop, and current author, who's become not only a strong resource as I write my crime thrillers, but he's become a friend as well.

Frank shares a good many insights as to how he's been able to create such a prolific number of novels over the past handful of years.

We talk method, inspirations, procedurals, motivating factors, as well as audiobooks, and a lot more.

I promise you'll walk away learning something from today's show. And if you'd like to learn more about Frank, visit his website at: FrankZafiro.com. Follow him on Twitter @frank_zafiro or Instagram @frankzafiro370.

And as always, you can find us at TheThrillerZone.com, and follow us on both Twitter AND Instagram @thethrillerzone.

Writer's Block Coffee Commercial 32

If you really enjoy coffee fresh roasted coffee, and you like the convenience of having items mailed directly to your home, without the hassle of going to the store, then I have a terrific solution for you: Writer's Block Coffee. Writer's Block Coffee is a new sponsor of the show, and once you taste it, you'll see why I am raving about it. WBC uses a natural process that means less water is used, which benefits the environment, they have a "specialty grade of in the 80's" (scale is 0-100), which means their beans are in the Top 5% in the world, AND they donate a % of profits to "First Book," a non-profit that supports literacy with kids. So, just try their "fresh roast to order coffee," which means it doesn't sit on the shelf, and if you use the CODE: thethrillerzone, Ben will give you 15% OFF your first order!
