The Raymond Chandler Web Site Is Back!!!

The Raymond Chandler Website disappeared from the Internet for a while when we lost the server on which it was being hosted. Now we've finally gotten the site back up and live thanks to the good folks at Palmetto New Media.

We are still in the process of shaking out the broken links and doing a general bit of dusting and polishing, but the Raymond Chandler Website is now back online here.

Thank God! My life has meaning again. Losing the Raymond Chandler website was a major blow and I'm so glad it's back again. It had always been my favourite website and was such a valued and valuable resource for this devotee of the great man. Welcome back!

Dear Raymond Chandler Estate,

Might you be interested in the prospect of literary representation into major trade publishing? To tell you a little bit about our literary agency, which closes more deals for authors than any other agency worldwide: tridentmediagroup.com

Trident Media Group (TMG) is a prominent literary agency located in New York City that originally formed in 2000. TMG represents over 1,000 bestselling and emerging authors in a range of genres of fiction and nonfiction, many of whom have appeared on the New York Times Best Sellers Lists and have won major awards and prizes, including the Pulitzer Prize, the National Book Award, the National Book Critics Circle Award, the P.E.N. Faulkner Award, the P.E.N. Hemingway Award, The Booker Prize, and the L.A. Times Book Award, among others. TMG is one of the world’s leading, largest and most diversified literary agencies.

For more than ten consecutive years, TMG continues to rank number one for sales according to publishersmarketplace.com in North America. TMG is the only U.S. literary agency to consistently be in the top ten in both UK fiction and UK non-fiction and has ranked as highly as number one in UK fiction deals.

And to tell you a bit about me: Mark Gottlieb attended Emerson College and was President of its Publishing Club, establishing the Wilde Press. After graduating with a degree in writing, literature & publishing, he began his career with Penguin’s VP. Mark’s first position at Publishers Marketplace’s #1-ranked literary agency, Trident Media Group, was in foreign rights. Mark was EA to Trident’s Chairman and ran the Audio Department. Mark is currently working with his own client list, helping to manage and grow author careers with the unique resources available to Trident. He has ranked #1 among Literary Agents on publishersmarketplace.com in Overall Deals and other categories. http://www.tridentmediagroup.com/agents/mark-gottlieb

I love Philip Marlowe. Favorite private eye. Favorite story is The Big Sleep.

Very timely that I found your Raymond Chandler site as I had just finished an entry on my own website concerning this hard-boiled noir genius. The page addresses the first sentence of various novels and for some reason I found myself doing LA Confidential. Naturally, I could not let James Ellroy stand alone on this mean street, so I next contrasted his LA Confidential 75-word sentence to Chandler's opening paragraph to The Big Sleep.
Anyone who wishes to read this entry may do so at brianetics.info. It's a totally free website, no registrations or logins or passwords. Free in every way. You'll find the Chandler entry on First Things First.
Oh, and while listening to The Little Sister - I think - I was taken by a lengthy screed delivered by a beleagured, disgusted, frustrated LA detective (what else?) that was eerily reflective of our Defund Police, criminal leniency over a safe society etc. Anyway, glad to find you and hope to find that latest Marlowe book, if it exists.
