Next week at Maine Crime Writers there will be posts by Vaughn Hardaker (Monday), Rob Kelley (Tuesday), Kate Flora (Thursday) and Kaitlyn Dunnett/Kathy Lynn Emerson (Friday).

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

Matt Cost will continue his COST TALKS at the Pittsfield Public Library on Thursday, May 16th at 6 p.m. The conversation and reading will be about PIRATES. On Saturday, May 18th, Cost will be Cozy Con East in Groveland, MA from 10 to 3 p.m. He will be on a thriller panel (see, not just cozy) at 10:30 a.m. and will be signing books the rest of the time. The event is hosted by Kensington Books and the Langley-Adams Library.

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, along with the very popular “Making a Mystery” with audience participation, and “Casting Call: How We Staff Our Mysteries.” We also do programs on Zoom.
