Conversations & Connections and Beyond

I’ve been far behind on updating my events calendar—and on keeping track of the events I need to prep for. This Saturday, February 6, for example, I’ll be leading a session on “Crafting Suspense” for the Conversations & Connections Virtual Conference, and I still need to get ready for it!

I’ve updated the events page on my website with the Suffolk Mystery Writers Festival on March 6, a couple of programs for Sisters in Crime chapters on each coast, and then Malice Domestic—still looking forward to how they’re planning to handle this year’s conference, always one of the highlights of the year.

Here’s a rundown:
