So the Edwards Era Begins

Congratulations to author Martin Edwards, who this year assumes the role of chair at Britain’s Crime Writers’ Association. “Of course, I am proud to have been picked to lead the CWA,” he writes in his blog. “And I’m startled to find that I’m the only person to have been both chair of the CWA and president of the Detection Club at the same time. Inevitably I’ll make a few mistakes as I try to move things forward, but I plan to do my best to make sure both organizations look after their members, and continue to play a significant part in the crime-writing world, here in the UK and further afield.”
