Sorry this post will be short. Right now, it’s late at night and I’m in
Oakmont, PA, after spending a wonderful day with fifty fellow mystery
authors at the Festival of Mystery put on by Mystery Lovers Bookshop near
Pittsburgh, PA. It was a fun-filled day of meeting mystery readers and
making new friends and celebrating mysteries–and selling lots of books.

Following on the heels of Malice Domestic Mystery Conference near
Washington, DC, this makes six straight days of mystery. Many mystery
authors also attended Malice, where we participated in interesting panels
and booksignings. But my favorite thing about Malice–as well as all
mystery conferences–is meeting readers. To be honest—that’s why we
mystery authors come—to see our fans. And meet new friends.

So—-I’m sorry this blog is brief, but I’m off to the airport early
tomorrow morning for quick return to Denver then off the following day
AGAIN for a five day trip to Los Angeles. I’ll be signing and visiting
several mystery bookstores plus several yarn shops signing my latest
mystery, A KILLER STITCH.

Please check website for locations and dates to see if I’ll be visiting
your area. If so, please drop by and say ‘hello.’ And I promise to blog
about my California travels next week. Take care, everyone.
