Mostly Wordless Wednesday: Slaughter time

Life has been very busy lately. I was extremely honoured to host a chat with bestselling thriller author Karin Slaughter at her double book launch in Winnipeg, Canada, last night.

Karin was down to earth, witty, and fun. It was awesome to meet her in person and ask her about her experiences writing dark crime fiction. Thank you to both Karin and McNally Robinson Booksellers for the opportunity.

I promise to catch up on blog visits and comments this week, but in the meantime, here’s a photo of me and Karin during our author chat.

      It was such an awesome experience, Lee. She was fantastic, and so was our audience. I’d do it again in a proverbial heartbeat.

      Both took, Birgit! Sometimes it takes a while for them to show up on the site, for some reason.
