My Apologies!

What am I apologizing for? The fact that after many years of blogging, I'm taking a short hiatus. I'm faced with deadlines galore, now with two series on the go, and find it's really difficult devoting any extra time to Mystery Maven Canada at this point. However, I will be back! Hoping to return by the end of May, earlier if possible, so stay tuned. I'll post on Facebook the start-up date, as well as do a countdown on this site.

In the meantime, I'll start catching up on my reading and provide you with some long-awaited reviews. Books on the pile include:

Stinking Rich by Rob Brunet
By Book or By Crook by Eva Gates
Tidings of Murder and Woe by Cathy Spencer
The Women of Skawa Island by Anthony Bildulka
Butterfly Kills by Brenda Chapman
The Burying Ground by Janet Kellough
Pizza 911 by Donald J. Haika

I've got a bit of catching up to do!

As well, I'll be on the look-out for newer authors to interview and hopefully, I can also come up with some other ways to highlight Canadian Crime Writing. If you have any ideas, please let me know and, please bear with me!

If you're wondering what I'm working on -- the fifth Ashton Corners Book Club Mystery, Law and Author, comes out on Sept. 1 and, the first in my new Culinary Club Mystery, as yet untitled, will be out next year. I'll also be heading to Malice Domestic in Bethesda, MD , April 30-May 3; to the Arthur Ellis Banquet and awards, sponsored by Crime Writers of Canada in Toronto on May 28; and to the Suffolk Mystery Author Festival in Suffolk, VA, Aug. 22. Maybe we'll see each other?

Keep on reading!
