Next week at Maine Crime Writers, there will be posts by William Andrews (Monday), Brenda Buchanan (Tuesday), Susan Vaughan (Thursday) and John Clark (Friday).

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

from Kaitlyn Dunnett: Good news for those of you who subscribe to Kindle Unlimited and have not yet read my Liss MacCrimmon mysteries. The first book in the series, Kilt Dead, is available through this program for at least the next 90 days. If you aren’t in Kindle Unlimited, don’t worry. You can still buy the e-book from all the usual retail outlets. In this one, professional Scottish dancer Liss (think Riverdance, only Scottish) returns to her old hometown of Moosetookalook, Maine to recover from a career-ending injury and help out at the family business, Moosetookalook Scottish Emporium. As in all cozy mysteries, murder and mayhem soon follow, and Liss herself becomes the prime suspect in a case that’s particularly baffling because everyone, including Liss, seemed to be very fond of the victim.

also from Kaitlyn Dunnett: the winner of the drawing for an advance reading copy of A VIEW TO A KILT is Sharon Cales. Thank you to all who entered by leaving a comment on Tuesday’s post.
