Are you a mystery author? Do you have questions about how to write compelling crime fiction? Do detective stories keep you turning pages long after dark? After romance, mystery/crime is the second most popular genre in the book industry. Local authors Elena Hartwell Taylor and Chris Bieker are here to discuss the art and craft of writing mysteries, sustaining a series, and helping you write your best book! Having attended conferences and festivals around the US, including ThrillerFest, Bouchercon, PNWA, and the Decatur Book Festival, these authors are excited to share their knowledge with Spokane readers and writers of crime fiction. Purchase the author's books via Auntie's Bookstore!

This event is free and open to the public. Space is limited, please arrive early to secure your spot! We would like to thank the Spokane Public Library for their partnership.

Please fill out our festival survey after you have attended this event. The information you provide will help us obtain critical grant funding and will help make next year’s festival even better!
