SUMMARY:Meet Karen Nelson and Maureen Anne Jennings at Print: A Bookstore in Portland, ME!
DESCRIPTION:The more the merrier! \nJoin Sibylline Digital First authors Karen Nelson (The Sunken Town) and Maureen Anne Jennings (Bartender Wanted and One Too Many) at Print: A Bookstore on January 23rd, 2025 from 7:00-8:00pm.\nEVENT INFORMATION\nJanuary 23rd, 7-8PM\nPrint: A Bookstore\n273 Congress St.\nPortland, ME  04101\nFor more information on this event, please visit the Print events calendar here.\nPurchase your copies of The Sunken Town or Bartender Wanted here.\nAbout The Sunken Town:\nIf you admit on truth, what else will you have to acknowledge?\nLindsay, a thirty-year-old California native, never gave much thought to being adopted. When she unexpectedly inherits her birth mother Claire’s farmhouse in Maine, she is plunged into a journey across the country and across the years into a lake of secrets that will ultimately reveal just how far everyone was willing to go to protect her. Told from both Lindsay’s and Claire’s points of view, The Sunken Town explores adoption, identity, the nature of family dynamics, mother-daughter relationships, the impact of family secrets, the weight of motherhood and the lasting consequences of the choices people make.\nAbout Karen Nelson:\nKaren Nelson is a writer and the co-founder of the nonprofit Writing by Writers. During her long career in nonprofits, she has protected open space, funded cancer research, trained people to complete endurance events, and helped writers bring their work into the world. When not organizing writing workshops, she can be found hiking with her dog, reading traveling, experimenting in the kitchen, and hosting dinner parties.\nAbout One Too Many:\nRose Leary writes murder mysteries, but she never wants to see another real corpse. She tends bar to buy time to write in 1980s New York City, until her gruesome discovery of a murdered colleague derails those plans. As threats escalate, Rose fears for her next novel, her safety, and even her trust in Detective Frank Butler. Work lurches into chaos as inexperienced new bosses mismanage the restaurant, making accusations and blame seem like daily specials. Questions about guilt and innocence contaminate more than the crime scene, while jealousy and suspicion swirl in the oppressive August air. Nothing feels safe. She won’t survive unless she can outwit the murderer and find the weapon. Written with wit, intelligence, and a distinctive style, One Too Many serves another round of Maureen Anne Jennings’s signature mix of humor, murder, and suspense. And cocktails.\nAbout Maureen Anne Jennings:\nMaureen Anne Jennings has worn the hats of a journalist, copywriter, editor, publishing consultant, media manager, book festival director, and Fillmore East staffer. She owns more than 100 hats, not all of them work related. The Rose Leary Series of mysteries includes Bartender Wanted and One Too Many. Her short fiction has appeared in the anthologies Traveler’s Tales Italy, Cartwheels on the Faultline, and Saltwater Sweetwater, as well as in various periodicals. After the obligatory waitressing in college, she squandered a few years behind the bar at various dives in lower Manhattan. She also owned and operated a pub in northern California. Be careful what you write about. She graduated from Fordham University summa cum laude in comparative literature and still reads as many novels as she possibly can. Words are her life.\n
