June 14th, 2014 Meeting — Murder and the Mortician

HughesDeath: It happens to all of us, some ushered into it sooner than nature intended (especially in mystery novels). But a lot goes on between the last breath and the grave – what might a mortician find that would bring detectives running? Ask your morbid questions of our June speaker, April J. Seybert – General Manager and Licensed Funeral Director and Embalmer, Carillo’s Tucson Mortuary. She will speak on “Postmortem Cardiovascular Surgery and Underground Furniture.”

We’ll have a selection of delicious lunch entrees to choose from, and a fun book raffle.

Our afternoon workshop will feature AMW member Carol Dee O’Mahony encouraging us to take a random story from the newspaper and spin it into a mystery. following some simple steps invented by Aristotle but presented by AMW member Bill Adams. (What? Aristotle read newspapers?) Find out how easy it is to generate a mystery story.
