ONDEMAND WEBINAR DESCRIPTION: 

Miss Marple is just a nosy old lady. Lord Peter Wimsey is a bored one-percenter. Jessica Fletcher is seriously procrastinating on book deadlines, not chasing down criminals.

Lori will talk about reader expectations for these stories, how to think about what the story needs to succeed, and why amateurs are so popular with readers.

Good enough
Color: Ocean Blue, Style: Everyday 3 Season 50-80° F
Ordered 2 for a quick trip. They were warm enough for 45 degree nights. My complaint is how easily they tore.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Durable, Reliable, and Great for Outdoor Use!
Size: 7.5 Feet x 9.5 Feet
The Amazon Basics Waterproof Camping Tarp has been a fantastic addition to my camping gear. The 8x10 size is just right—big enough to cover a tent, create a shade area, or use as a ground cover. The dark green color blends in nicely with outdoor surroundings. It’s made of tough, waterproof material that held up perfectly during a recent rainy camping trip. No leaks, no tears, and the reinforced corners with grommets made it easy to tie down securely. It folds up compactly for storage and is lightweight enough to carry without any hassle. For the price, you really can’t beat the quality. Highly recommend for camping, backyard use, or emergency prep! 🌲⛺☔

Good for the Price
Size: 9.5 Feet x 11.3 Feet
This tarp did its job for the price! I did not use it for camping, but it was perfect for my particular use. Just beware that it's a bit thinner than other tarps I've used.
