Slay As Sweet As You Are — Joe Archibald
PERIL PRESS presents:
Ten Detective Aces, May 1949
“Dizzy Duo” Yarn
SLAY AS SWEET AS YOU ARE
by Joe Archibald
Snooty Piper, that sleuth in newshawk's clothing, has a roving eye for women -- and for clues. But when he catches up with this Hollywood honey, she's as cold as the slab she lies on -- and the clues are even colder!
5600 Words
Writer's Digest, March 1943
I KNOW ALL THE ANGLES, EXCEPT ONE
by Joe Archibald
SOME of our articles are a little wild. They don't say much about technique, and they are written casually, and even informally. Their English sometimes needs a nice brick wall to lean against. When we publish such articles, we aren't thinking about a writer's need to create “three dimensional characters.” We are thinking about a writer's need for companionship.
An article such as this is like meeting a writing pal at some bar and chewing the rag for ten minutes. You don't learn much, if anything. But we hope you pick up by reading it, something of the warmth and friendliness and conviviality of the author.
The writer of articles such as these is lonely, too. He is thinking of writers he'd like to know. There's a friendly handclasp, a grin, a tart wisecrack and a chuckle for you here from a man who makes his living at a typewriter -- and in between stories likes a sympathetic ear to cuss out and praise by turns the peregrinations of those singular people who make up our trade.
