Tomorrow, I take off for College Park, Md. where I’m staying with good friends so that I can attend Malice Domestic in Bethesda this weekend. Friday is chock full of events for mystery readers and writers. But Saturday, I’ll be at the New Author’s Breakfast at 7 a.m, where all 24 of us will be interviewed and will meet with readers who are interested in our books. Later that morning (9:40), I’ll be on a panel “Cozy and Loving It: The Allure of Cozy Mysteries,” then signing books at 11:30. The rest of the day I’ll be attending sessions with some of my favorite mystery writers, both as audience member and as presenters or interviewees—I’m most looking forward to the Elizabeth Peters interview.

After attending more events on Sunday, I will be heading to Pittsburgh to the Festival of the Mystery, once again, I’ll be signing books and hobnobbing with some of my favorite mystery authors. The organizers hold a tea for us. Then we head over to sign books and be interviewed by local media. For more info on the festival, click here.
So I’ll be taking a bit of a hiatus from the blog for a week or so. I’ll be updating Twitter and Facebook regularly, should you choose to follow along there.
