It’s hard to believe another Wicked year has past. We had a lot of fun and here are a few of our favorite photos!
Edith and Sherry both attended Left Coast Crime in Monterey, California — it was tough duty but they were happy to represent the Wickeds there.


Jessie once again hosted the Wicked Cozy Retreat in Old Orchard Beach. It looks like Jessie and Julie are comparing ways to strangle people. Barb seems calm and thoughtful.
We signed scarves for each other.
The next time we were together was at Malice Domestic in Bethesda, Maryland. Reine Harrington Carter won the Stick with the Wickeds contest and came with us on a fan. Pat Remick, a former president of the New England chapter of Sisters in Crime joined us for dinner.
We made charm bracelets with a charm to represent each of our series.
Jessie looks a little surprised as we stuff bags for the Author Go Round.
Barb and Liz are both nominated for Agatha Awards!
We are ready to head down to the banquet.
After the banquet wind down with wine.
In September Barb, Edith, Julie, and Sherry get together in Somerville — we missed you Jessie and Liz!
Our last get together of the year was at Crime Bake. It was a wicked windy day at the – can you believe it? – Wicked Pizza restaurant.
Bill Carito is one wicked awesome husband for posing for an Opening Lines photo.
Dru Ann was the Stick with the Wickeds contest winner and went with us on a stick to Crime Bake. Here we are after the banquet. Liz is the only one who manages to look at the camera.
One last lunch before we part ways until Malice in May 2015. Barb surprises us with Dead Fred sticky pads.
Sometimes we act Wicked.
But mostly we are cozy.
Thanks for being part of our year!
Thanks, Wickeds! You’ve had a great year, and I’ve enjoyed it with you. Especially going to Malice Domestic with you—even if it was on a stick. After all it was a fan, and that I am. A big fan of all the Wickeds!
Thanks for being such a great fan, Reine! We’ve all truly enjoyed your comments and contributions throughout the year!
Thank you so much Reine! I’m a big fan of yours and enjoy the stories you’ve shared with us this year!
Thanks guys for my wonderful adventure at Crime Bake. Next year is going to be a good year for one and all. Loved seeing the pictures.
We wish you could have been there in person Dru! Thanks for all you do for the writing community!
Look forward to seeing you at Malice, Dru Ann!
We loved traveling with you, Dru! I’m so glad you enjoyed Crime Bake and the photographic evidence. Here’s to another great year!
