Today marks 10 years of dru’s book musings.

When I started the feature blog, I didn’t know how much pleasure it would be to bring authors and readers together. I didn’t know that creating this blog, it would welcome a bevy of author who willingly take the time to create original text for my “day in the life” feature and have their characters sit down for my “get to know” feature as well. I’ve since added the “word with the author” to bring it around to their writing life.

Below is the first post:



Starting this blog, I did not know I would. . .

    • Be awarded the 2017 MWA Raven Award
    • Be an Anthony nominee in 2015 for Best Critical Or Non-Fiction Work
    • Be an Anthony nominee in 2018 for Best Online Content
    • Be a panelist and/or moderator at reader/fan conventions
    • Be Guest Fan of Honor at Malice Domestic 32/33/34 (2022)
    • Be Guest Fan of Honor at Left Coast Crime: Tucson (2023)

All of this brings me joy in helping get the word out about books from the crime fiction community.

 

Thank you authors, readers, and fans for making this all possible.
