August 10th meeting: Guns; Elevator Pitch

Need to know more about firearms for your mystery? Do we have the speaker for you! Join us in welcoming Sgt. Jason Rockwell from the Pima County Sheriff’s Department, who will tell us all about the kinds of guns and ammunition the department uses. Have something specific you want to know? Bring your questions!

We’ll have a delicious lunch, a fun book drawing and the announcement of our 2019 Youth Short Story Contest Winners!

In our afternoon session, hear about the dreaded Elevator Pitch. Developing an effective elevator pitch has been called the most difficult part of writing any novel. Michaele Lockhart, author, professional editor, and teacher, will guide us through the in and outs of crafting an effective and enticing elevator pitch to showcase our work.
