| 1 | The Great Filling Station Holdup | 2021 | M.E. Browning | Buy |
Beyond her novels, M.E. Browning writes short crime fiction that has appeared in various anthologies and mystery magazines. Her contribution to The Great Filling Station Holdup, a 2021 anthology of crime stories inspired by Jimmy Buffett songs, is titled “Einstein Was a Surfer.” The collection pairs sixteen crime writers with sixteen Buffett tracks, and Browning’s piece draws on the laid-back sensibility of the source material while still delivering a sharp mystery.
Browning’s short fiction and nonfiction work spans textbooks, diving publications, and genre magazines. Writing under both M.E. Browning and Micki Browning, she has built a body of work outside her novel series that reflects the same attention to procedural detail and sense of place found in her longer books.
