Happy 4th of July everyone.

Next week at Maine Crime Writers there will be posts by Jule Selbo (Monday), Joe Souza (Tuesday), Gati Stiteler (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 Kathy Lynn Emerson: In case you missed Thursday’s post, The Murder in Colchester Gaol is now available in e-book and trade paperback. Set in England in 1591, it involves murder, witchcraft, exorcism, and religious persecution—all that fun stuff—as Alison Wynter tries to discover the truth about the death of her youngest sister. Spoiler alert: she succeeds against all odds.

July for MATT COST. Come say hi. 

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.
