New Anthology Announced

Minnesota Crime Wave has issued a call for submissions to MURDER ON A STICK, its newest anthology, due for release in August 2009. Yes, as the title and release date imply, the key element of these stories will be the Minnesota State Fair. The fair, which this year opens August 21st and runs through Labor Day, is one of the biggest state fairs in the country, and features everything under the sun—from bees to beef to butterheads, and more kinds of food on a stick than you can imagine!

Aspiring writers can read the call and view the quirky list of clues to include at Carl Brookin's blog. The deadline for submissions is October 1, 2008. If you're a reader and want to savor the suspense of finding the story clues later when the book comes out, DON'T read the blog entry!
