Exciting News!!
My short story "The Red Herrings at Killington Inn" has been nominated for the Agatha Award for Best Short Story for 2020! This is my second nomination in two years, and it's just as thrilling as my debut nod last year. The story appears in MASTHEAD: Best New England Crime Stories. The story is about a true crime investigation club that visits a quaint inn in Killington, Vermont, with a past and present that might not be as calm and picturesque as it appears.
I am still on Cloud 9 that my short story "The Last Word" won the Agatha Award for Best Short Story! And I along with my co-editors also won the Anthony Award for Best Collection or Anthology. "The Last Word" is about two old friends from culinary school who discuss the ups and downs of their long friendship over a special meal prepared in response to a bad restaurant review.
