News from the 2017 Debs

Tiffany Jackson is researching! And has some BIG news to share next week.

Crystal King spent time on Thursday night reading with Boston Globe writer Ted Weesner, and renowned chef Barbara Lynch (her memoir OUT OF LINE: A LIFE OF PLAYING WITH FIRE is incredible!). She was also on The Matt Schaffer Sunday Morning Review on WBZ 98.5 Sports Radio (I know, I know, it’s not sports!) this morning, talking all about FEAST OF SORROW and ancient food. 

Oh, and she was long-listed by the Center for Fiction for their First Novel Prize!

Amy Poeppel was happy to celebrate the paperback release of SMALL ADMISSIONS! She also wrote a piece for the Writers In The Storm blog on how reading plays can be useful to novelists.

Lynn K. Hall is completing her transition to full-on mountain woman!

Jenni L. Walsh is heeding the advice of Crystal and Tiffany from this week’s posts and is already beginning to work on essays for her next release, BONNIE. May/June 2018 will be here before she knows it! Jenni was also excited to be a guest on the History Author Show!
