Next week at Maine Crime Writers there will be posts by Maureen Milliken (Monday), Kait Carson (Tuesday), and Dick Cass (Friday), with a Writing Tip post on Wednesday.

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

A reminder: One lucky reader who leaves a comment on one of our posts this month will win a bag of cozy mysteries. What could be better than that?

Matt Cost was on the Saucy Dames and Cool Dudes podcast with Bonnie Graham this past Monday talking music, odd news, and, of course, books. Check it out here. On Tuesday, Cost had the honor of being the judge for the fiction category of the Joy of the Pen writing competition at the Topsham Public Library. Check it out here. Have a happy Thanksgiving to everybody who celebrates. A fine time for family. Write on!

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.
