This event will not be recorded.
Writing the Berkshires: Local author, Leslie Wheeler, a long-time resident of New Marlborough, will discuss how she uses the Berkshire setting in her three series mysteries, Rattlesnake Hill, Shuntoll Road, and Wolf Bog. Setting is all-important to her. It’s where a novel or story begins. Plot and character flow from the place.
Leslie Wheeler is the award-winning author of two mystery series: the Berkshire Hilltown Mysteries and the Miranda Lewis Living History Mysteries. Her short crime fiction has appeared in numerous anthologies including the Best New England Crime Stories anthologies, published by Level Best Books, where she was a co-editor/publisher for six years, and now by Crime Spell Books, where she holds the same position. A member of Mystery Writers of America and Sisters in Crime, she serves as Speakers Bureau Coordinator for the New England chapter. She divides her time between Cambridge, Massachusetts and the Berkshires, where she writes in a house overlooking a pond.
