Next week at Maine Crime Writers there will be posts by Jule Selbo (Monday), Joe Souza (Tuesday), Vaughn Hardacker (Thursday) and Gabi Stiteler (Friday).

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

From Kathy Lynn Emerson: Good news! My collection of the complete short stories connected to my Face Down mysteries is now available in trade paperback and e-book formats. Lady Appleton’s World contains sixteen short stories set in the sixteenth century. This is the first time all of them have been published in one volume. It’s print-on-demand, so it won’t show up on brick-and-mortar bookstore shelves, but any bookseller or library can order a copy.

The ISBN for the paperback is 979-8-227-88201-1. It’s priced at $18.99 (the e-book is a bargain at $5.99).

John Clark will be hosting a program on the books of John Green Tuesday Feb. 11th from 5-7 at the Waterville Public Library, 73 Elm Street. The event is open to all.

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, 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.
