My #Review today is on this book, second in the series, that comes out next Tuesday. #Booksky Kevin's Corner: Review: Two Truths and a Lie: A Thriller by Mark Stevens kevintipplescorner.blogspot.com/2026/04/revi...

Announcing nominees for 2026 Derringer Awards. My anthology, Midnight Schemers & Daydream Believers, has been nominated as Best Anthology, and Linda Bennett's story "The Artist" for Best Short Story. Several other authors included in Schemers were also recognized for their work in other categories.

Extra shoutout to @curtisippolito.bsky.social and @judypenzsheluk.bsky.social for their anthology finalist nods 🙌

Mystery writers weigh in! www.thestilettogang.com/2026/04/01/c...

It's such an honour to announce that Linda Bennett's story, "The Artist" (included in the also-nominated "Best Anthology" Midnight Schemers & Daydream Believers, edited by me!!) made the Derringer short list for Best Short Story! Fingers crossed! shortmystery.blogspot.com/2026/04/smfs...

An offer from the New York Times Book Review team! How exciting! Too bad this and so many other emails like it (from famous authors, non-existent book clubs and marketing "experts") are total scam. #AuthorBeware

I absolutely love this. From the Goodwill Librarian. #gardens #books
