Not suitable for cozy writers (or those with delicate sensibilities)

Have You Registered For Bouchercon Alaska Yet?

It's sure to be a killer.

(Don't forget to enter the book draw if you haven't already.)

Got any videos of bears dragging off cozy writers?

Maybe we could get that on tape this fall...

Cozy writers make good grizzly bait, 'specially if you bleed 'em a little first. No self-respectin' grizzer bear can turn down a dinner of cat-cozy author. It's like a delicacy for 'em.

I suppose I really shouldn't be so flippant about this, but there really was a history of tourists sticking honey on their kids' hands to try to get bears to lick it off for a pretty picture.

Um, not the way it works. Anyone who goes out into bear territory and doesn't think they can and will actually kill you if so inclined is an idiot. Sorry, but true. I guess the problem is so many people who haven't actually seen bears up close in the wild.

Or been to Liard Hot Springs...
