Finkelstein Memorial Library

On Sunday, March 31, I spoke about the Shakers, The Shaker Murders, and other topics at the Library. This is the library I was Director of for 14 years. A large library, it serves a diverse population. Working here was life-changing for me in so many ways. And, even though I left over ten years ago, they continue to be supportive.

The Shaker Murders

Upcoming events

The Shaker Murders

With the release of The Shaker Murders a few weeks ago, I have a busy schedule ahead.

On Tuesday, February 19, I have a radio interview with No Limits at 6 EST. Saturday,

February 23, I am reading an excerpt from The Shaker Murders – and speaking about the Shakers – at the Port Jervis Library at 2 pm. Love doing these kind of events where I meet readers and answer questions. They always make me think. Open to the public.

March 16, I am participating in a conference arranged by my Sisters in Crime Chapter The Mavens of Mayhem. It is a full day affair held at the Greenbush Library in East Greenbush, New York. There will be two panels in the morning and two in the afternoon followed by book signings for all the participating authors. Our featured guests: Vickie Delaney and Edwin Hill. Free and open to the public but registration is required.

Two weeks later on March 30, 11 am at Linda’s in Goshen, I will be signing copies of my new book, The Shaker Murders. Open to all,

The following day, Sunday, March 31, I will be speaking at the Finkelstein Memorial Library in Spring Valley, New York. Open to the public – of course.

Signing at the Open Door Bookstore

I am looking forward to the signing at the Open Door Bookstore in Schenectady this coming Sunday, December 4, at noon. With me will be Susan Sundwall, Frankie Bailey, and Carol Pouliot. We are celebrating the thirtieth anniversary of Sisters in Crime and the tenth of my chapter; the Mavens of Mayhem.

Speaking Engagements

I had a great talk at the Newburgh Library last Wednesday. I have two more coming up. On Sunday, October 23, I will be talking at the Orangeburg Library – in Rockland County, New York. The talk begins at 2.

The following Sunday, I will be speaking about witchcraft at my own library – the Goshen Public Library in Goshen, New York. Hard to believe but I have never spoken there. I felt shy pushing myself into a slot where I work.

Come and ask questions.

Weekend talks

Well, there was no housework done in the Kuhns household this weekend. I left the house on Saturday at 7 am to attend the steering committee meeting for my sisters-in crime chapter. The regular meeting began at 10:30 and I left at 12:30, after a very fascinating talk by a Colonie policeman, for a talk at Cohoes Public library.

What a great talk it was too. And I met an old friend from my days working with the New York Library Association.

On Sunday I spoke at a meeting of the Arlington Women’s group to an assemblage of 78 people. Another great talk. And they fed me lunch.

Now I have to return to real life. Sigh.
