Never heard of the mystery writers’ conference? That’s OK, I hadn’t either until two years ago when BEST DAY EVER launched and my publisher sent me to this event in Toronto. I’ve been hooked ever since. At Toronto two years ago, and this year in Dallas, I had the chance to meet and visit with the most wonderful women writing crime novels. Of course, yes, there are great male authors there, too, but for me, the most special part of the weekend is the women who write in the same domestic suspense genre as I do. It really is a special bond. So, until next Bouchercon, I’ll miss these faces but fortunately we keep in touch online!

Hope you follow me on social media: @KairaRouda on Instagram, Twitter,  Pinterest, and BookBub, and KairaRoudaBooks on Facebook. And if you haven’t read my first domestic thriller, check out Best Day Ever.
