Stitch, read, win!

November 10, 2010 by Denise Felton 2 Comments

I am knocked out to discover a whole publishing sub-genre of “crafty mysteries.” Gayle Trent (aka Amanda Lee) writes series about two crafty heroines — a cake decorator and an embroidery-shop owner! Yes! Get to know this author via the excellent interview posted by Nicole of Follow the White Bunny. And while you’re there, enter the giveaway for a signed copy of Gayle/Amanda’s The Quick and the Thread: An Embroidery Mystery. Go to the blog post to enter before November 16.
