On 2 May I'll be attending the committee meeting of the Crime Writers' Association having just been voted onto the commmittee.
On 9 May, I'll be guest speaker at the Basingstoke and Old Basing U3A which I'm really looking forward to.
I'm also looking forward to appearing at Waterstones Newport, Isle of Wight on 15 May, where I'll be talking about my DI Horton marine mystery crime novels and my thrillers after which I'll be signing copies of my books. The event begins at 6.30pm and tickets cost £3.00 refundable against the purchase of one of my novels.

CrimeFest is a convention for people who like to read an occasional crime novel as well as for die-hard fanatics.

The annual convention draws top crime novelists, readers, editors, publishers and reviewers from around the world.
On Friday 25 May I'll be taking part in a lively panel debate between 9am and 9.50am at the Royal Marriott Hotel, Bristol. There will be plenty of time for questions, followed by a book signing.

Pauline Rowson video interview on the path to becoming a published crime author
I loved adventure and mystery novels when I was young, and this has continued throughout my adulthood with the enjoyment of reading crime fiction. I adore heroes and I think most women do and most men want to be one.
In this video interview just uploaded on my website and to my You Tube Channel I'm talking to Tony Smith about what got me into crime writing, my progression from reading childhood adventure stories to becoming a published crime fiction author and how my marketing skills have helped both with my writing and marketing my novels.
