Craft
I enjoy talking about character development, writing the romantic mystery, and writing young adult fiction. I'm a longtime educator and love talking and working with students.
Lynn Slaughter's DEATH IN THE END ZONE, a sequel to MISSED CUE, came out in May of 2026.. In addition to her adult mysteries, she is the award-winning author of five YA coming-of-age romantic mysteries and a middle grade identity-swapping tale, THE BIG SWITCH: VARNEY AND CEDRIC. After a long career as a professional dancer and dance educator, Lynn earned her MFA in Writing Popular Fiction from Seton Hill University. She lives in Louisville, Kentucky, where she's at work on her next novel and is an active member and former president of Derby Rotten Scoundrels, the Ohio River Valley chapter of Sisters in Crime.
