Book It: Jane Porter at Laguna Beach Books
I apologize for not blogging recently. After finishing The Ballad of Aracely Calderon and heaving five bags of trash out of my office, I've been cooking up magazine proposals (the family's gotta eat!) and preparing to write a TV spec set in 1940's L.A. But I'll be updating you with events, Q&A's, etc. through my column at Examiner.com.
Spread the love!

How Done It: Southern California Chapter of Mystery Writers of America
Do you have a story of mystery and suspense that begs to be written and published? The Southern California Chapter of Mystery Writers of America might be just for you!
Mystery Writers of America (MWA) was created in 1945 by like-minded authors to "promote and protect the interests and welfare of mystery writers and to increase the esteem and literary recognition given to the genre." The Southern California Chapter of MWA (SoCal MWA) continues that tradition with chapter volunteers led by Chapter President Leslie S. Klinger.

Writing With Love: Orange County Chapter of RWA
One of the benefits of being a writer in Orange County are the available resources and communities. Budding romance and women's fiction authors are especially fortunate to have one of the largest and most dynamic chapters of Romance Writers of America in Orange County.
(Editorial note: The author is a former member of OCC RWA.)
