I’m trying a genre I haven’t attempted before, cozy mystery. I’m part of a fun series set in the fictional town of Wisteria, Wisconsin with other authors. I’m excited to read them all. Who is your favorite cozy mystery author?

It’s National Go for a Ride Day!! A day when you are encouraged to get out of the house and go for a ride, any ride, any mode of transportation. Are you going for a ride today? Not me…I’m staying in and working on edits and writing. Maybe I’ll celebrate next year. 😊
