I have just put some new authors/pages up on the Cozy Mystery site. Let’s see, there is a new mystery series which comes to us from the people at Annie’s Crafts Company, and there are also five new Cozy Mystery authors. Well, technically there are only four authors, but one of them has a pseudonym, so the person is only one, but her “authors names” count as two.

This series features the women members of the Nimble Thimbles Quilting Group.

I have been busy getting eight new authors ready to take their places on the Cozy Mystery site. These are authors who you all have told me about. Some of you have recommended these authors and you have told me they belong on the site. So, here goes!

Sandi Ault     Ault writes the Wild Mystery Series. This series features an agent with the U.S. Bureau of Land Management in Taos. Her name is Jamaica Wild, and all of the mysteries in the series start with the word “wild”. (Incidentally, Ault is a bestselling author who has won the Mary Higgins Clark Award, and several other awards.)

Zoe is an animal rehabilitation officer who sleuths with her dog, Charlie. Daley also writes the TJ Jensen Paradise Lake Mystery Series, which features a high school teacher/sleuth in Nevada. (I will be adding Daley to the list of authors who feature holidays in their mysteries.)
