HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED HOW YOU CAN TURN YOUR LUST FOR WORLD TRAVEL TO RESEARCH FOR YOUR NEXT WRITING PROJECT?
WHO: ALL Women Writers!
WHY: Mission: Scottsdale Society of Women Writers gives members access to events of interest, a format for exchanging ideas, an opportunity to network with other women writers/authors in camaraderie and support, and an alliance with professionals for writing, publishing, and marketing.
SPEAKER: Russ Smith grew up in the Detroit suburb of Grosse Pointe, and now splits his time between Benzie County, Michigan and Scottsdale, Arizona, unless he is traveling somewhere looking for the next story.
Russ feels fortunate to have lived and worked in many different countries in Europe and Asia. After an exciting 30-year career in the semiconductor industry, Russ embraced his passion for writing and began his second career as an author of murder mysteries.
The Pointe System mystery spans several decades as the exclusive community emerges from being restricted and re-lined. Murder at Beulah Crest is a tale of murder in a small tight knit community. Readers who love ocean liners and cruise ships, their history, and the people who work and travel on them, will enjoy the mystery stories that take place in Table 29 and The Carinthia Secret.
Russ will share his writing tips, process for writing and how he uses travel to enhance his stories, as well as more information on his books.
