Dark and Stormy is almost upon us! For those of you who live in the Midwest
or anyone who wants to experience one of the most intense, rewarding days
you could possibly imagine, this mystery writing conference will take place
Saturday, June 11 at the Hyatt Regency Woodfield, in Schaumburg, Illinois.

The day is jam packed with workshops and presentations by Midwest authors,
police officers, and experts in everything from poisons to suspense to point
of view to plotting. Yes, even short stories! And the best part will be
presentations and interviews by our guests of honor: Laura Lippman and
Charlaine Harris.
Please go to http://www.ofdarkandstormynights.com for more information and
to download a registration form. The price is reasonable — so are the rates
at the hotel. You can also email Jeanne Dams at jeannedams@sbcglobal.net

There are still slots available, but it’s coming up fast… so don’t delay.
Hope to see you there!
Dark and Stormy is sponsored by the Midwest Chapter of MWA.
