Erica Miner will be presenting for the Write on the Sound Writers Conference in the Seattle area, Oct. 1-2, 2011. The brochure is available at:http://www.ci.edmonds.wa.us/ArtsCommission/pdf/2011WoTSBrochure.pdf
Her workshops will be Journaling: the ‘Write Way to Write Fiction’ and ‘Solving the Mystery of Mystery Writing.’  In her mystery workshop, she will discuss the challenges of a mystery or thriller novel and and will give her theories behind the demands of structure, character and other distinguishing factors of the genre. Using her experiences rubbing shoulders with great opera stars as a violinist at the Metropolitan Opera, she’ll demonstrate how a unique setting can keep a reader intrigued to the last page.

The San Mateo Library will present “An Evening with Author Erica Miner.”  According to the library’s web site, “In addition to this book talk, Miner will be giving an Opera talk to coordinate with the Met Opera live HD transmission of La Fanciulla del West.”
