 durals. Retired police officer and crime fiction author Frank Scalise disc
 usses the many considerations&mdash\;and incorrect stereotypes&mdash\;invo
 lved when writing a police procedural. Topics include the structure of a p

 procedural elements of an investigation\, terminology\, and most of all\, 
 the best resources you need to get the details right. This workshop is per
 fect if you are writing procedurals\, if your characters will interact wit
 h the police\, or if you are simply a procedural reader who wants to peek 
 behind the curtain.&nbsp\;</p>\n<p><span style="text-decoration: underline
