Welcome to Twin Cities Sisters in Crime,
where you can find all sorts of information and resources for writers, readers, librarians, booksellers, and teachers.
Are you a published crime writer? An aspiring or about-to-be-published mystery novelist or true-crime writer? An avid reader and mystery-lover? Maybe you’re a librarian who wants to pass along your latest great mystery discoveries to readers… Perhaps you’re a bookseller who loves bringing people into your cozy reading room with the tantalizing promise of a whodunit… Or a teacher, working with students on how to craft their first thrilling mystery…
We can help! We are local authors, and we love to share our craft, our knowledge, and our experiences with our communities.
Our meetings are normally held the first Tuesday of each month from 6:30-8:00 PM. Due to our unpredictable Minnesota winters, meetings held January through April are online only via Zoom. From May through December, we hold in-person meetings at St. Peder’s Lutheran Church, 4600 E 42nd Street, Minneapolis, MN 55406. These in-person meetings are also available online via Zoom. Please check the Meetings link for meeting details for specific months.
Each meeting features a guest speaker or panel on topics of interest to crime writers and readers plus a reading from one of our authors. We also host professional development meetings for crime writers, peer-to-peer workshops on topics like social media and marketing, field trips, and much more.
