Agent info
Under the pseudonym Christina Crowe, Sherrill Wark has written *A Girl Dog's Breakfast*, scary stories and rude poems, Amazon.com; and *The Unkindest Cut: short creepy movie scripts*, Amazon.com, paperback. She has written 3 full-length screenplays one of which, *The Bus to Lo Siento*, made the top 10% cut at the 2013 Oaxaca Film Festival. "I have a pile of screenplays-to-do teetering on the edge of my desk," she says, "and more ideas trying to invade my brain when I sleep. I need to become a vampire so I can live long enough to finish them all."
Sherrill Wark's most recent books are: historical novels *Death in l'Acadie: a Kesk8a story* and *Refuge in l'Acadie: a Kesk8a story* -- the first two of a planned six-book project; and the horror tale, *Graven Images*.
Using wit, wisdom and kindness, Sherrill has put together her considerable knowledge and experience (as a writer, editor, former typesetter (20 yrs), and senior citizen) under an attention-grabbing title, *Really Stupid Writing Mistakes: How to Avoid Them*. (Hint: She says the stupidest mistake is not writing; the second stupidest mistake is thinking you don't have anything to say.) The paperback edition is available at Amazon.com.
Sherrill has been a published poet -- "the angsty stuff," she says -- since her early days. *Mostly of Love & the Perils Thereof: The Sequel* is available at Amazon.com as is her latest, *The Closet Hides a Flight of Stairs*.

Murder at Tennis in Tunis
on March 15, 2022
(no rating)
Once again, Qais Ghanem has transported me from my comfortable little apartment in downtown Ottawa into the Middle-Eastern world of power and money. In *Murder at Tennis in Tunis*, the son of a big important qat dealer, with connections to the President of Yemen, accidentally kills the woman he’s been oh-so-very generous with. Wink, wink. This does not go over well at all with Boutros, the woman’s boyfriend, who was just about to pop the question. Will there be another “accidental death”? As far as Boutros is concerned, there will be. Qais Ghanem has a way of explaining the Arab world without explaining it. *Murder at Tennis in Tunis* is a great read. More than once, I found myself mentally yelling at the characters: “No. Don’t do that. Don’t do that.”—Sherrill Wark, author of *Maureen Tries Online Dating*
