Wanted: Mystery Lovers (15 June 19)
Sisters in Crime (SinC), Upper Hudson Chapter (Mavens of Mayhem) is seeking new “Sisters and Misters” to help our chapter grow. We’re seeking committee members for monthly programming and the Murderous March Writers & Readers Confab. We also seek a treasurer, which includes a surprisingly low time-commitment despite its importance, and a social media/web maven.
Enjoy the best camaraderie by participating actively.
NEXT MEETING: JUNE 15TH, Bethlehem Public Library, 10:30
Our lively chapter, one of three in NYS, includes fans and writers — women and men who enjoy meeting, learning, and engaging around the craft, business, characters and field of mystery writing. Learn more and find our meeting schedule at www.upperhudsonsinc.com. Email eleanor.kuhns@gmail.com, chapter president, to inquire about these volunteer roles.
Please share this with your writing and book club communities.

WE are the guest speakers at the January 2019 meeting. Rather, we are the guest channelers of our favorite crime writers. Arrive ready to share and discuss favorite passages of a favorite book or story. What’s taken your breath away recently? Or what old gem do you keep going back to? As always, free and open to the public. Coffee and tea served. Bring a friend!
