October Monthly Meeting

Saturday, Oct. 19, at 1 p.m. on Zoom

Join us on Saturday, October 19th at 1 p.m. Pacific time for a special monthly meeting where we will have a quick how-to presentation on the new Sisters in Crime online community. SinC LinC is for Sisters in Crime members only. With its large variety of interest groups, you'll find your own special group(s). These include: Indie Authors, Research Questions, and Cozy Comedy Writers. You’ll learn how to navigate it and how to use it to further your writing journey.

Then stick around to virtually meet the authors of the Capitol Crimes 2024 Farm to Foul Play Anthology. You’ll be the first to hear what their short stories are about!
