Maggie Findlay @maggiefindlay.bsky.social · 31/08/2026Accidentally driving over someone’s flatscreen TV feels exactly how you’d expect. No, I didn’t see it until the van in front of me had driven over it. Yes, it seems to have been jaywalking. The crosswalk was down the hill. 010
Maggie Findlay @maggiefindlay.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Dear optical company, those frames are not timeless. They were hip for a hot minute in the 70s and then desperately, cringingly sad for 50 years until you revived them, making those of us from the before times wince. 040

Maggie Findlay @maggiefindlay.bsky.social · 04/05/2026Currently querying! MY TRUE CRIME GOOD TIME. Shut-in romance editor (and Dateline fan) terrorized by crime statistics finally sets her sights on love but ends up in the crosshairs instead. Now she must face her fears and use her true crime knowledge to solve a murder…or be next. #mystery #romance 0101
Maggie Findlay @maggiefindlay.bsky.social · 04/05/2026Last night I saw #TheDevilWearsPrada2 with my teen daughter. Me: “Thanks for the fun girls’ night!” Her: “Mom, that’s so cringe.” Me: “Oh, do people not say girls’ night anymore? What’s the new term?” Her: “No, it’s hardly a girls’ night if I’m out with a middle-aged woman.” #kids #momlife #funny 130

Maggie Findlay @maggiefindlay.bsky.social · 11/04/2026As a kid reading Nancy Drew & Agatha Christie, I couldn’t handle suspense, so I used to ruin the ending for myself from the get-go. Then I’d relax and enjoy catching all the clues and watching the murderer make their mistakes. I’m pretty sure this is why I write mysteries #booksky #writingcommunity 090

Maggie Findlay @maggiefindlay.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Why do I watch every true crime show available? They help me create an internal list of warning signs to add to my gut instincts. For more on instincts, this book about the role of intuition in staying safe is fantastic. And chilling! Thanks, Gavin DeBecker for The Gift of Fear. #TrueCrime #mystery 120

Maggie Findlay @maggiefindlay.bsky.social · 17/03/2026I found our daughter, who is autistic, made a leap in enjoying and understanding longer works when I read MG novels in verse to her. The lines are shorter and hold more meaning, so auditory processing wasn’t as hard. Not as many strings of prepositions to keep track of, perhaps. #ASD #Autism #Kids 020
Maggie Findlay @maggiefindlay.bsky.social · 04/02/2026I’ll be participating in my first write-in with #Sistersincrimetoronto tomorrow. I’ve let my brain breathe a bit. Time to put the final polish on this mystery #MYTRUECRIMEGOODTIME #mystery #amwriting 020

Maggie Findlay @maggiefindlay.bsky.social · 29/12/2025My protagonist in MY TRUE CRIME GOOD TIME disapproves of covered bridges, as they are generally too secluded and far too much like tunnels, making the risk to romance ratio unacceptable. #WIP #mystery #amwriting #booksky 150

Maggie Findlay @maggiefindlay.bsky.social · 26/11/20256 wks ago, a young woman rang our bell late at night looking for her sister in our neighborhood. She suspected she was in danger. She asked my husband to call the police. This week, a man rang our bell looking for a 29yo of a certain name. We don’t know him. I’ve already written the book in my head 011
