Next week at Maine Crime Writers there will be posts by Susan Vaughan (Monday), John Clark (Tuesday), Kate Flora (Wednesday), Dorothy Cannell (Thursday), and Chris Holm (Friday).

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

From Kaitlyn Dunnett/Kathy Lynn Emerson: In keeping with my blog last month on Jigsaw Puzzle Therapy I’ve finished another jigsaw puzzle.

And I’m almost finished with the rough (very very rough) draft of the third Mistress Jaffrey Mystery. Then all I’ll have to do is make sense of the plot, fix all the continuity problems, make sure my characters are behaving in a rational manner, correct the thirty gazillion typos and misspellings, and delete all the repetitious and unnecessary words. And, oh yes, think up a title. Wish me luck.

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 of the business. Contact Kate Flora: mailto: kateflora@gmail.com
