Michelle Cox is the award-winning author of the Henrietta and Inspector Howard series (historical mystery/romance), The Merriweather Series (historical fiction/Jane Austen retellings), and a stand-alone novel, The Fallen Woman’s Daughter, which she will discuss during the Local Authors BC zoom event on Wednesday, April 2nd, at 2 pm Pacific time.

Michelle has won over 100 international awards and has garnered starred reviews from Library Journal and Booklist as well as praise from Kirkus, Publishers Weekly, Popsugar, Buzzfeed, Redbook, Elle, Brit&Co., Bustle, Historical Novel Society, Working Mother, and many others.

The event will require a link for entry. If you are not on the existing list of members of the group, or of the INWG, you may request the link be sent to you directly by contacting Linda at auntiesbooks@gmail.com.

Joan M. Kop will discuss her re-released memoir – Spies, Lies & Psychosis – at the October 2nd meeting of the Local Authors Book Club (and INWG). Joan’s history, which includes working with the CIA, is fascinating. But her primary goal here is to share her personal experience of mental illness, and she hopes her book will help others find encouragement and help for their own mental health issues.

The full title for Joan’s book is Spies, Lies & Psychosis: Surviving Betrayal, Mania, Depression and the Schizoaffective Disorder. Copies are available for purchase at Auntie’s Bookstore. Members are looking forward to her presentation and the discussion should be a lively one. For more information, contact lindathewriter@gmail.com. This meeting will be held via zoom.
