Can it be another year already? Our 2024 Revels Holiday Party arrived with a splash at Manhattan’s M Social event space. Located seven floors above Times Square in this popular hotel, the venue was bustling with 70 chapter members and plus-ones celebrating the ending of a great year for us.
We held a record number of panels and readings, expanded our social media presence, began some new initiatives we’ll continue in 2025, and awarded the revised Leon Burstein Awards to a winner and runner-up for debut mystery novel.
It was a fabulous evening in the city with friends, colleagues and celebrants as we toasted another wonderful year for the Mystery Writers of America-New York and looked forward to 2025 with commitment, comradery and collaboration.
Congratulations especially to the Leon Burstein Award winners.
