Do you like stories? Then you’re in the right place! I’m Dale E. Lehman, and I love to write stories as much as you love to read them.
I write novels and short stories. I write mysteries, science fiction, fantasy, and more. And I write them for you.
You can find my books at major online booksellers and my short stories at Medium.com, but the best way to connect with me is to join Story Corner, my weekly newsletter. Each Friday, I’ll deliver myself right to your inbox. Sometimes it will be a short story, sometimes a true story, sometimes a book review or discounts on my books. Best of all, when you sign up, I’ll send you a free digital copy of my first novel, The Fibonacci Murders (Howard County Mystery #1), plus “Seven Apples,” my first (and so far only) Howard County Mystery short story, and a set of printable Howard County Mystery bookmarks.
Are you a writer, too? Then join Writing Corner, my newsletter on the craft, to receive writing tips and advice each Saturday. You’ll also get my first writing course, Start Writing, Keep Writing, for free. And of course, you can sign up for both newsletters to get the whole shebang.
Please look around the site. Let me know if you have any questions. And don’t forget to sign up for Story Corner or Writing Corner (or both!). Thanks for stopping by!
It is always a pleasure for the mystery/suspense enthusiast to include a new author in the genre who has a total mastery of the storytelling arts including character development and superbly plotted story lines with all manner of twists, turns, and surprises. Such is the case with Dale E. Lehman and his novel "The Fibonacci Murders." A genuine 'page turner' from beginning to end, "The Fibonacci Murders" is very highly recommended...
I immediately became engrossed in the action and remained glued to the end... Dale Lehman is a new author to me and I cannot get enough of his books – fabulous, clean murder mysteries that have me hanging on his every word. I do hope there is a book three.
Once again the strong, fully developed main characters are here and forming a very solid basis for not one case but three! By now I am hooked, so I can’t really say this could be read as a stand-alone – but why would you want to. Start with "The Fibonacci Murders" and work your way to this one. You will not be sorry.
Whew! This was a COMPLETELY different direction from Lehman’s normal books – and I loved it... The adventure was constantly taking me for surprise – I never knew what was happening next but I was absolutely loving it. All in all, I’m so excited to have been able to read this new book from Lehman and I cannot WAIT to see what he writes next!!
This quirky heist story is utterly delightful.... Bernard has the brains, Melody has the heart, and they both have the looks... for better or for worse.
The charming cast of characters all bursting with personality makes "Weasel Words" a cozy pleasure. I can't wait to see what the Earls get up to next!
Despite the huge range, the stories follow a natural flow between realism, surrealism, and everything in between while maintaining the author’s signature voice... For anyone who enjoys thoughtful, well-written short stories in a full range of genres, "The Realm of Tiny Giants" is a no-brainer.
Once more Dale E. Lehman has cleverly constructed and executed a thinking man’s crime suspense. He is a masterful storyteller as he weaves his plot... Feuding families, hidden secrets and tight lips can all be found within A Day For Bones. It takes brains, dedication and team work to solve the case.
