UCR MFA CONFERENCE - December, 2025 - FACULTY MEMBERS

Saturday, November 22nd, 10:00 a.m. - Ellen Byron & Patricia Smiley

w/their new mysteries: CRESCENT CITY CHRISTMAS CHAOS & A DARK SEPTEMBER NIGHT


In Ellen Byron’s new novel - "It’s Christmas. It’s cozy. It’s culinary. It’s chaos! It’s the fourth book in this fabulous mystery series with a vintage flair from USA Today bestselling and Agatha Award–winning author Ellen Byron."
A native New Yorker, Ellen is a graduate of New Orleans' Tulane University. She lives in the Los Angeles area with her husband, daughter, and a rotating crew of rescue pups.

In Patricia Smiley’s first book in her Justice Bay Mysteries, the death of Emmaline McCoy’s beloved aunt Lydie in a hit-an-run accident shatters her world. Granted two weeks of bereavement leave from her corporate Los Angeles job, Emma heads to the small Northern California coastal town of Justice Bay to settle Lydie’s estate and sell her waterfront cottage. She soon uncovers alarming information that her Aunt’s death was not an accident. 


Patty earned a BA from the University of Washington in Seattle and an MBA from Pepperdine University in Malibu, California. She resides in Los Angeles with her loyal and opinionated Siberian Forest cat.


Location: Studio 14, Old World Village, 7561 Center Avenue, Huntington Beach, CA
