The Battle House Hotel is our hotel this year. It’s a
fantastic site, and we know that you will enjoy it. There
are plenty of rooms, and we do have a special rate.

This event was the brainchild of Carolyn Haines,
Mississippi Delta Mystery author.

Sarah Bewley is the administrator, and handles
applications, payments, and all the details you care to
name.

This year's event takes place in Mobile, Alabama at the
historic Battle House Hotel and Spa!

Featured writers include Chris Grabenstein and  Dean
James, along with editor Mallory Kass of Scholastic,
Benjamin LeRoy, Editor and Publisher of Tyrus Books,
agent Debbie Carter, and many others.

BREAKING NEWS!  Chris Grabenstein's newest book (co-written with James Patterson) has been number 1 on the New York Times Best Seller list for books for Middle School for two weeks! Congratulations, Chris!

And Dean James, writing as Miranda James, is also on the New York Times Best Seller list for his new mystery, "Out of Circulation."

We're just chock full of success this year!
