Some people take their secrets to the grave. Others write them down, sell the rights, and ask for a foreword.
In Ink and Guilt: When Killers Pick Up the Pen, we dive headfirst into the shadowy literary underworld of real-life criminals who, after committing unspeakable acts, felt the need to put their stories on paper. Sometimes it was a confession. Sometimes it was a denial. Sometimes it was just... a draft for their Netflix deal.
This isn't a book about "solving" crimes - it's about what happens after. After the bodies are buried. After the trial is over. After the headlines fade - but the murderer sits down at a desk, opens a fresh notebook, and decides, "Now let me tell you what really happened."
From memoirs penned behind bars to blog posts updated in real time during active investigations, Ink and Guilt drags us through the blood-stained pages of those who couldn't keep their words - or their hands - clean. You'll meet:
But this isn't just a rogues' gallery of literary sociopaths. It's a brutal, often hilarious (in the "laugh-so-you-don't-cry" kind of way) dissection of our cultural obsession with killer confessions. Why are we drawn to these stories? What happens when truth, guilt, and storytelling collide? And who really owns the narrative - the victims, the justice system... or the author with blood on their hands and a publishing contract?
Witty, macabre, and deeply unsettling, Ink and Guilt doesn't just examine murderers who wrote books. It exposes how writing became the ultimate power play for some of the world's most dangerous minds. The page, after all, is a perfect place to rewrite history - especially when you're the one who ended it for someone else.
If you've ever found yourself binge-reading a killer's memoir and wondering if you're part of the problem... you probably are. And this book is here to explain why - with sarcasm, horror, and a healthy dose of literary criticism.

From memoirs penned behind bars to blog posts updated in real time during active investigations, Ink and Guilt drags us through the blood-stained pages of those who couldn't keep their words - or their hands - clean. You'll meet:
- A narcissist who turned his courtroom confession into a bestselling autobiography.
- A soft-spoken blogger who documented his crimes while police searched his apartment.
- A scammer who faked a murder, wrote about it, then got sued for pretending too well.
- And multiple cases where murderers wrote "fiction" - and the fiction turned out to be true.
