Chicago-area residents have the opportunity next month to get a peek into a mystery author's thought process and gain insight into the business side of an author's life at one of two "Love is Murder" mini-conferences being held during November.
Libraries in Waukegan and Lincolnshire will host local-area authors, who will discuss the joys — and challenges — of publishing. Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions, mingle with the authors and network with other attendees.
As a special bonus, one registered participant at each even will win a ticket to Love is Murder XIII Mystery Writers' Conference, to be held at the InterContinental Chicago O'Hare in February 2012, a prize valued at $275.
The mini-conferences are free to attend, but registration is required to be entered into the raffle.
