Because August is Edinburgh’s Fringe Festival! It’s the world’s largest arts festival, opening the city to anyone who wants to perform. I first attended as a kid, but hadn’t been back in years. I was glad that this writing retreat overlapped with the start of the festival. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160924368-7ZJW3SN4VEB4BSQ7S1M8/Edinburgh-Storytelling-Centre-2018-07-19-14.03.27-1-Scottish-Storytelling-Centre-1024x1024.jpg Blog - Edinburgh Writing Retreat One of many events at the Scottish Storytelling Centre.

One of the best things about this year’s Malice Domestic was meeting the amazing daughters of Elizabeth Peters (Barbara Mertz) and Joan Hess, Beth and Becca. I became a writer in large part because of Elizabeth Peters novels. I got to meet her once before I died, and this weekend it was so special to hear more stories from her daughter, who is maintaining her legacy. Joan Hess finished the last Amelia Peabody novel, The Painted Queen, after Barbara passed away. I still haven’t read it, because I don’t want the adventures to be over! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160912955-PK5LXU6JLA92BKOFOXHY/5-Malice-2018-2018-04-27-17.30.26-1-Best-Debut-authors-WEBRES.jpg Blog - Malice Domestic 2018: Coming Home with an Agatha Award!

The Agatha Awards honor traditional mysteries. Kellye Garrett (who won for her terrific debut Hollywood Homicide) and I grew up reading traditional mysteries we loved but that didn’t have many characters who looked like us. So we grew up and wrote our lives into the type of mysteries we adore. It was so amazingly cool to have Dayna and Jaya mysteries honored this year. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160915350-GYH5D3DLPQG7M579WAGK/Malice-2018-Gigi-Pandian-Agatha-Award-teapot-editor-Kendel-collage-story-coverWEB-1024x693.jpg Blog - Malice Domestic 2018: Coming Home with an Agatha Award!

Shelly Dickson Carr co-hosted a banquet table with me. It was wonderful celebrating with Shelly not only because she’s awesome, but the reason I met her in the first place was because I’d read her debut novel (Ripped) and loved it, so I said hello to her at a mystery convention a couple of years ago. I’d discovered the book because I love her author grandfather’s mysteries. And the connection gets even cooler: John Dickson Carr wrote locked room mysteries during the Golden Age of mystery fiction, and his books and stories are what inspired me to write the locked room mystery in “The Library Ghost of Tanglewood Inn.” https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160914750-SVKTGPAXIS2902AOTWP2/Malice-2018-2018-04-28-19.33.52-Agatha-banquet-table-WEBRES.jpg Blog - Malice Domestic 2018: Coming Home with an Agatha Award!

A highlight of the Midnight Ink get-together was getting to know debut author Lissa Marie Redmond, whose first novel comes out in February. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160903661-L6I48VHVYKX77Z38BPD0/Bouchercon-2017-Toronto-SMFS-lunch-Gigi-Josh-Gerald-Shelly-1024x510.jpg Blog - Bouchercon 2017 in Toronto I love short stories, especially locked-room “impossible crime” mysteries, a genre most popular in Golden Age mysteries, but that I’m thrilled to see returning (more on that in a separate post). My lunch companions at the SMFS luncheon included cross-genre author Josh Pachter, Gerald So (who’s involved in running the SMFS blog), and Shelly Dickson Carr (granddaughter of John Dickson Carr and a phenomenal writer in her own right). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160902855-LXIH2BVRA6HX8F76I8MG/Bouchercon-2017-Toronto-Deanna-Gigi-2017-10-14-12.41.43-1024x683.jpg Blog - Bouchercon 2017 in Toronto When you have coffee with one of your favorite authors, and they turn out to be every bit as awesome as their novels, it’s pretty damn cool! Have you read Deanna Raybourn’s Veronica Speedwell novels? They capture the spirit of Elizabeth Peters’ Amelia Peabody novels, but in their own unique way. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160903156-X5644EMNYLJBG3TE7HFR/Bouchercon-2017-Toronto-Gigi-Ausma-2017-10-14-12.46.28-1024x683.jpg Blog - Bouchercon 2017 in Toronto And it was the brilliant Ausma Zehanat Khan (who writes the award-winning Esa Khattak/Rachel Getty mysteries plus a new fantasy series) who first introduced me to Deanna’s books. Bouchercon is always a whirlwind, so sadly I only got a chance to have a brief chat with Ausma. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160902659-8ZNIJJ6T5ZDBY5A3S3J7/Bouchercon-2017-Toronto-Barry-Ovidia-IMG_20171016_092715_047-1024x1024.jpg Blog - Bouchercon 2017 in Toronto International authors: Barry Lancet (Jim Brodie thrillers based in Japan) and Ovidia Yu (playwright and novelist from Singapore). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160901584-2IUD86TKAXQMU9BIZ7SR/Bouchercon-2017-Guppies-TWO-TEXTsmall.jpg Blog - Bouchercon 2017 in Toronto Meeting up with the Sisters in Crime Guppies, the online chapter that began for aspiring authors to support each other.

One of his books is The Heirs of Anthony Boucher, a history of mystery fandom that includes a fascinating history of Bouchercon. I had the pleasure of being on a locked-room mystery panel with Marv at a previous Bouchercon.

I’m one of the new members of the Sisters in Crime board of directors, so the morning before the convention kicked off, I attended my first SinC board meeting (more details about the board and our roles can be found here). Are you a member of Sisters in Crime? If not, why not? Here’s why you should join. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160867062-5QQRA1ZKJDAUR47RN1YT/SinC-ETB-2015-Vera-congrats-web-407x246.jpg Blog - Bouchercon 2015 This year’s Eleanor Taylor Bland Crime Fiction Writers of Color Award winner, Vera Chan, was introduced at the Sisters in Crime breakfast. One of my roles on the SinC board is to facilitate this fantastic award, which is now a yearly $1,500 grant, so let me know if you have any questions about it! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160868571-1OT7R0S987C93FIMY70U/TEXT-Diane-Kendel-Gigi-Bouchercon-2015-Raleigh-P1080150-WEBRES.jpg Blog - Bouchercon 2015 It’s always a treat to hang out with Diane Vallere and Kendel Lynn. I met the two of them early in my writing journey. Kendel is now the editor of my Jaya Jones treasure hunt mystery series, but before that, the three of us collaborated on Other People’s Baggage, a collection of three interconnected mystery novellas. We’re still friends after writing a book together, so I know these pals are the real deal. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160867461-XZP8ZLW9AG6TZAPP3Q5O/TEXT-COLLAGE-Guppy-lunch-Bouchercon-2015-Raleigh-WEBRES.jpg Blog - Bouchercon 2015 Big thanks to Karen Pullen for arranging the Guppy Lunch, and to Jim Jackson for making sure we all introduced ourselves to put faces to the names we know on the online group. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160867944-UJJ7128LNCISE87RGIAW/TEXT-COLLAGE-SMFS-lunch-at-Bouchercon-2015-Raleigh-P1080169-WEBRES-2.jpg Blog - Bouchercon 2015 And thanks to Art Taylor and Gerald So for arranging a lunch meet-up for the Short Mystery Fiction Society. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160869661-RNBNVRVFRS2ACGKV1373/TEXT-Short-story-panel-Bouchercon-2015-Raleigh-Harriette-Art-Barb-Gigi-John-P1080196-WEBRES.jpg Blog - Bouchercon 2015 Harriette Sackler (moderating), Art Taylor, Barb Goffman, Gigi Pandian, John Shepphird. I spoke on a short story panel along with three of the authors up for Anthony awards for Best Short Story this year, so as you can imagine, we had a great discussion. We talked about the rising interest in short fiction, what draws us to this form, the craft of writing short stories, favorite stories that inspired us, and of course I brought up my love of locked-room “impossible crime” short stories. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5cfbf6b4acdf23000195b531/1561160870572-LZEOCU4RUYCET8NKWAU8/TEXT-green-smoothie-Happy-Hale-Bouchercon-2015-WEBRES.jpg Blog - Bouchercon 2015 Raleigh is a foodie town, so there were many cute restaurants to check out, including the Happy & Halecafe with organic salads and green juice right across the street from the hotel.

Thompson Award, presented by the Bouchercon Board to recognize extraordinary efforts to develop and promote the mystery and crime fiction community. Bill and Toby Gottfried were given this year’s award. The Gottfrieds live not far from me, so I’m lucky I get to see them on a semi-regular basis at Janet Rudolph’s Literary Salons.
