I have a short story, “The Mittens,” coming out in the Jan/Feb 2023 Alfred Hitchcock Mystery Magazine (on the newsstands in December). Ahead of that, I have a post on Trace Evidence, the AHMM blog. “Yes, but why?” addresses the reasons people do the things they do… especially in stories. You can read it here: https://trace-evidence.net/2022/11/04/yes-but-why-by-marcelle-dube/
If you’re in the Okotoks area…
…then do come to the Indie Author Book Fair, in honour of National Authors Day.
WHEN: Saturday, November 5 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.
WHERE: Okotoks Public Library (23 Riverside Dr.)
Thirteen local authors will be reading from their books: a variety of children’s, non-fiction and fiction. And their books will be for sale–just in time for Christmas!
I’ll be reading from my latest book, Identitty Withheld. For more info: okwriters22@admin
And if you’re wondering how the launch of Crime Wave: Women of a Certain Age went, well it went swimmingly! (Never really understood that expression but it seems to fit here…) The book is now available everywhere: https://books2read.com/u/4DPKaP.
And if you feel left out for missing the launch, you can see it here:https://youtu.be/Qhn9S12LfsI
October 19 launch!
Women of a Certain Age Launch!
On October 19th at 5:30 pm Pacific, Sisters in Crime Canada West is launching our second anthology, Women of a Certain Age—AND YOU’RE ALL INVITED! The indefatigable Charlotte Morganti created a series of book trailers / invitations that I’ll be sharing here in the next couple of weeks. Here’s the first one: https://youtu.be/kWTlkExcYG0
The launch event is free, of course but you need to register: https://sinc-cw.ca/upcoming-events/
Look what came in the mail this week…
My award for winning the 2021 Crime Writers of Canada Short Story Award of Excellence. I think CWC was hoping to hand the awards out at this year’s in-person ceremony, which turned out to be online again. So they mailed out the awards at the same time as the 2022 awards. Ain’t she purty?
