Maple Grove Days was held in Maple Grove, Minnesota this week, with a parade, street festival, face painting, crafts for sale, art projects for kids at the Maple Grove Arts Center, a group book signing by the Night Writers, and a spoken word with musical accompaniment performance by Night Writers John Stanton and Justin Knauss of John’s piece Flying Monkeys.

We all like to think, of course, that our books are beloved, but we were very flattered when visitors came from as far as the Caribbean. 

Yes, Jack Sparrow stopped by to browse Lyn LaCoursiere Miller’s Lindy Lewis Mysteries. 

And it appears he was overcome to get a signed copy of Blue Bells of Scotland!

Also present today to sign books:

Genny Zak Kieley, author of Hot Stamps and Green Pants: Growing Up in the 50′s and 60′s and three books on Northeast Minneapolis.

Ross Tarry, author of four mysteries.

Many thanks to Lorrie Link at the Maple Grove Arts Center for a good day!

Stay tuned for Monday’s announcement of the giveaway of Druidsong’s Rebels and Rogues.
