A Message to Nonmembers Forgot your password? Write to data@sinc-ic.org. Sisters in Crime is an international organization of readers and writers dedicated to raising awareness of women's contributions to the mystery genre. The organization was founded in 1986 by Sara Paretsky and other women mystery writers and enthusiasts and now has over 50 chapters around the world. The Internet Chapter of Sisters in Crime was founded on Genie in 1994 to provide a convenient meeting ground for members of SinC who live in places where there are no local chapters. Although we left Genie in 1996, our purpose remains the same: to maintain a chapter accessible to everyone who has a computer and a modem. Is SinC just for women? Not at all. Men who want to see that women authors get a fair deal in the mystery field are more than welcome. We cherish our male "sisters." All members of SinC are welcome, whether they belong to a local chapter or not. Join with us. Share in the uniqueness of being the only Sisters in Crime chapter which meets exclusively on the Internet. To join the national organization, send your name, address, and a check for $40 ($45 outside the US/Canada) payable to Sisters in Crime to: Beth Wasson, Executive Secretary Sisters in Crime P. O. Box 442124 Lawrence, KS 66044-8933 To join the Internet Chapter, go to our How To Join page.
