The Friends of the Ferguson Library, in partnership with Mystery Writers of America (MWA) – New York Chapter, present CrimeCONN 2026, Connecticut’s own one-day mystery lovers' conference.
The theme this year is Pick Your Poison, where you'll discover how writers convert their life experiences, compelling interests, or just plain curiosity, into mystery and suspense. We'll discuss the blurred lines between crime writing, nonfiction and general fiction, the guilty pleasures of the revenge novel, and the lives of private, professional, real and imagined detectives.
Books will be available for sale and signing.
CrimeCONN will be presented as a hybrid event.
In-person event includes coffee, continental breakfast and lunch.
