I think it's finally safe to say, at long last, that spring is here. For those of us on the east coast, it wasn't a moment too soon either!
Right after the Edgars, we'll be heading down to the Malice Domestic Convention in the pretty D.C. suburb of Bethesda, Maryland. Mystery Scene is sponsoring the New Authors Breakfast again this year. Hope to see you there!
Best,
Kate

If it hadn't been for my second-grade teacher, I might never have become a novelist. More importantly, I might never have discovered the utter joy of reading. You see, at the end of that year, she noted on my report card that my parents "might want to encourage Kay to read over the summer, as she's shown little interest in that so far."
Kay Hooper's latest novel is A Deadly Web (Jove, April 2015).www.kayhooper.com
