We live in the North Carolina mountains, which means that the nearest North Carolina beaches are something like 5+ hours away. That’s why it’s become our custom to head to the South Carolina coast instead. The nearest beaches are a more manageable 4.5 hours away.
And, as luck would have it, they’re temptingly close to Charleston, SC, which is one of the great historic cities—and a foodie destination, to boot.
The region is also chock full of literary history as well. One of the beach towns we visit every summer is Sullivan’s Island, famous for its association with the great freakish author, Edgar Allan Poe. He is the subject of my post this week at Sleuthsayers, the mystery blog.
I hope you’ll check it out, if you’re so inclined.

If you’re looking for reading material during this hellish time, I hope you’ll consider one of my books or my wife’s. If ever there was a time for escapism, it’s now!
The e-book versions of both of my two most recent books, Murder on Book Row and the fantasy novel, Sorceress Kringle, are available at almost every online retailer. You can order print copies at the usual suspects online, or autographed copies from Malaprop’s, the bookstore in my nabe.
