There are a lot of conferences for writers every year. I always try to attend at
least a couple. My recent favorites have been RWA National and Malice Domestic. But this year, with the economy as it is, I had to think about what to do and where to go.
My son and daughter-in-law made one decision easy. They live in Chicago but will be visiting LA the same weekend as Malice. As a result, I’m staying home!
Instead, I’ll attend the brand new California Crime Writers Conference in June. It is a joint conference by the Mystery Writers of America SoCal chapter and the Sisters in Crime Los Angeles chapter, and it’s local to LA.
And I will attend RWA National in Washington, DC, this year. Looking forward to it!
How about you? How do you decide which conferences to attend?

If you saw my blog here last month, you’ll know that May was pretty busy for me. I had two new books published.

It’s May 2022. And it’s quite a month for me. I’m having two books published! They’re numbers 56 and 57, so I’ve been pretty fortunate in my writing.

Do writers ever go on vacation? Physically, sure. Mentally? Probably not.

So what are some of my oddest inspirations these days?
