Next week at Maine Crime Writers there will be posts by Lea Wait (Monday) Maureen Milliken (Tuesday), a mystery guest (Wednesday), Kaitlyn Dunnett/Kathy Lynn Emerson (Thursday) and Barb Ross (Friday).

In the news department, here’s what’s happening with some of us who blog regularly at Maine Crime Writers:

From Kathy Lynn Emerson/Kaitlyn Dunnett: Today, September 26, I’ll be doing a “chat with the author” and book signing at Liberty Public Library, Liberty, New York. That’s my old home town and I’m there for my high school reunion. Later in the week, I’ll be blogging about why else I’ve made this trip. Hint: it has something to do with finding the perfect small town setting for a cozy series.

Kate Flora: We are eager to hear about the adventure, and the reunion, and will be surprised if you don’t come home with a few story ideas.

And since last week I promised someone who commented would get a copy of Beat, Slay, Love, I must be a writer who keeps her word. Are you listening, Myrna Bouchard? And now I guess I’ll need your mailing address. And then, since giving gifts is so much fun…I’m going to give another copy away next week. So keep those comments coming, MCW fans!

An invitation to readers of this blog: Do you have news relating to Maine, Crime, or Writing? We’d love to hear from you. Just comment below to share.

And a reminder: If your library, school, or organization is looking for a speaker, we are often available to talk about the writing process, research, where we get our ideas, and other mysteries (and secrets) of the business. Contact Kate Flora: mailto: kateflora@gmail.com
