Next week at Maine Crime Writers, there will posts by Dorothy Cannell (Monday) Kaitlyn Dunnett/Kathy Lynn Emerson (Tuesday), Bruce Coffin (Wednesday), Brenda Buchanan (Thursday), and Sandra Neily (Friday).

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

Malice Domestic is this weekend in Bethesda, Maryland. Those of us attending will try to post a picture or two.

On May 2, Lea Wait will be visiting the South Bristol Elementary School in Maine, speaking with third and fourth graders about Wintering Well and sharing nineteenth century artifacts, books — and what it’s like to write and edit a book.

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
