Next week at Maine Crime Writers there will be posts by Susan Vaughan (Monday), Vaughn Hardacker (Tuesday), Jen Blood (Wednesday), Kate Flora (Thursday), and Lea Wait (Friday).

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

On Wednesday, August 10th, Kate Flora and Roger Guay will be at the Guilford Library at 6:00 p.m. to talk about riding around in a green pickup truck and writing A Good Man with a Dog. Kate and Roger think they may have found a new way around writer’s block.

And on Thursday, July 11th, Kate and Roger will be at the Center for Moosehead History at 6:00 p.m., to discuss the book.

The Marie Antoinette House … that’s what locals call the house Lea Wait lives in. And on Wednesday, August 10, she’ll be talking about the legends, myths, and realities about that house … and how she’s used its history in her books.  Where? The Boothbay Region

Marie Antoinette House, circa 1890

Garden Club, at St. Columbia’s Church at 32n Emery Lane in Boothbay Harbor. She’ll be speaking at 1:30, and the meeting is open to the public. Her books will also be available for purchase and signing.
