Sisters in Crime Colorado
@sinccolorado.bsky.social
We're the Colorado chapter of Sisters in Crime, a national group supporting crime writers since 1986. We offer education, advocacy, support and community for all writers. We're where writers belong.
Huge thanks to Kevin Schilz of Schilz Martial Arts for teaching #SinCColorado members about the art of krav maga, so we can get it right in our mystery fight scenes! Also to @hollyrharris.bsky.social for organizing the field trip and to member Brooke Craig (action pic) for being a good sport!

From #SinCColorado member Kirsten Weiss: The first draft of A DEATHLY DISPLAY is done! #sistersincrime

It will expand dramatically over the course of edits into a full-length mystery.

I draft fast and tight then add in emotion and description later.

From #SinCColorado member Mary Birk: Celebrating sending the fifth book in my Lord Terrence Reid mystery series to first beta readers. The tentative title is Violent Seed. Is it coincidental that with my book temporarily out the door, I’m starting to plant my real garden seeds? #booksky
