Next week at Maine Crime Writers, there will be a posts by Vaughn Hardacker (Monday), Brenda Buchanan (Tuesday), John Clark (Thursday) and Joe Souza (Friday).

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

Encircle Publications has notified Vaughn C. Hardacker that they want to publish The Exchange. A contract and publication date are forthcoming. The novel follows Dylan Thomas (yup, same name as the poet) as he searches for his three-years-old niece who has been abducted in an adoption for money scheme. The trail will take him from Maine to Boston.

Kaitlyn Dunnett‘s blog last Thursday  https://mainecrimewriters.com/2020/01/02/where-did-you-get-that-idea/#comments included a giveaway. It’s not too late to go there and leave a comment to be entered in a drawing for an advance reading copy of A View to a Kilt.

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
