Women Writing Crime Fiction

Women Writing Crime Fiction

Presented by The Writer's Center at The Writer's Center

Join authors Cheryl Head (Judge Me When I’m Wrong)Tara Laskowski (One Night Gone) and Vanessa Lillie (Little Voices) with moderator Angie Kim to discuss their newly released crime fiction!

A Detroit PI who struggles to accept her sexuality. A newly divorced woman who tries to recoup in a secretive beach community. A former prosecutor turned new mom who struggles postpartum. Learn about these female protagonists solving crimes as the panel discusses vital issues of class, family dynamics, sexual orientation, motherhood and identity in fiction. Panelists will discuss their paths to publication from a multibook mystery series (Head) to thriller debuts (Laskowski and Lillie). Setting also features prominently in their books, so panelists will reflect on their settings from the streets of Detroit to exclusive mansions of Opal Beach and historical cemeteries in Providence, Rhode Island.
