I wrote about a new author (to me!) who I am now reading: Camille Minichino (who also writes under the pseudonym Margaret Grace) and was very surprised to get a “comment” reply offering a miniature reading/crime scene drawing for us to enter. For those of you who are already Minichino’s fans, you probably know that she makes miniatures as a hobby. So, not only is she a physicists with her Ph.D. from Fordham University, and a Cozy Mystery author, but she also is a miniaturist.
When you visit Minichino’s site, be sure you click on the “gallery” link at the bottom. You will be very impressed by her library of miniatures… I certainly am! They are truly wonderful, tiny/little scenes.
I just want to be sure that you all don’t miss out on this very generous offer… And, since I am never sure if people read all of the comments posted (I certainly do!), here is a portion of her comment:
“If it’s not too intrusive here, I’d like to offer a couple of presents to readers of this blog: a miniature reading/crime scene. Just use DANNA’S LIST as the subject if you’re interested, and send to camille@minichino.com by June 3. I’ll draw a name soon after. (If Danna is among the entries, I’ll send one to her separately!) I promise there will be NO other follow-up except notice of the next book if you choose.
For samples of scenes I’ve donated to auctions and shipped to other drawing winners, you can visit the gallery at dollhousemysteries.com. (This link no longer works.)
It’s always a great honor to hear from readers. Thanks for the chance to meet you this way.
Best, Camille/Margaret”
As a Cozy Mystery reader, I think that a miniature reading/crime scene would be a great addition to my home! Good luck!
