Happy Mother’s Day, 2019!

mother's dayJust a quick note to wish Happy Mother’s Day to all of you 🙂 !

As I’ve said before — I think we should use this day to celebrate all of the women in our lives. I have posted (twice!) a letter I once received that was passed on by my best friend about the importance of maintaining relationships with all of our “sisters”.  If you are interested in reading it again, here is a link to the latest post in which I included the letter.

Hope you all have a great day!

Cozy Mystery News – May 2019

News is a little lighter this month than some – just three authors, but they’re all good ones!

First up, Lynn Cahoon will be starting a new Cozy paranormal mystery series, which should be at least three entries. It will take place in Sun Valley, Idaho, and the star will be running a catering business in an old haunted school. Cahoon is also the author of the very popular Tourist Trap Mystery Series, starring Jill Gardner, a coffee house/book store owner in South Cove California. Lynn also writes the Cat Latimer Mystery Series, starring a sleuth who used to be an English professor – but now is a bed and breakfast owner in Colorado. She also writes the Farm-to-Fork Mystery Series which stars the owner of a farm to table restaurant in Idaho.

Next, Sarah Graves will be continuing her Death by Chocolate Mystery Series with at least three more entries, the first of which will be titled Death by Chocolate Snickerdoodle. The Death by Chocolate Mystery Series is itself a continuation of the Home Repair Is Homicide Mystery Series. Jake (Jacobia from the Home Repair Is Homicide series) is now the owner of a bakeshop. And for those of you who enjoy Cozies with recipes: the Death by Chocolate series has them! Also, those of you who enjoy the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries channel’s movies, the Home Repair movies are in that line-up. Sarah Graves also writes a suspense crime thriller series called the Lizzie Snow Mystery Series.

Finally, Mary Ellen Hughes will be adding a new moniker : Emmie Caldwell. Those of you who miss the Needlecraft Mystery Series that Monica Ferris wrote, you’ll be super happy to see that as Emmie Caldwell she will be writing a new series of at least three books starring a knitting enthusiast and a knitting circle in Crandalsburg, Pennsylvania. Yahoo for those of us who enjoy needlecraft Cozies! Mary Ellen Hughes is the author of the Keepsake Cove Mystery Series, the Pickled and Preserved Mystery Series, the Craft Corner Mystery Series, and the Maggie Olenski Mystery Series.

As I mentioned at the beginning of this entry, there aren’t a lot of authors but there sure is a lot of good news this month!

Updated Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Cozy Mystery Movies – May 2019

This is just a quick note to let you all know that I just updated the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Cozy Mystery Movies – May 2019 entry that I posted a few days ago.  The whole month of May (2019) is now on that entry.

I see that I’m going to be able to catch up on some of the already-aired mystery movies that I missed.

P.S. It looks like June 2019 will be bringing us the premier of a new Cozy Mystery series!

PICTURE PERFECT MYSTERIES: NEWLYWED AND DEAD

Small-town New England professional wedding photographer Allie Adams (Alexa PenaVega) finds herself in the middle of a murder mystery when the groom is suddenly shot and killed during the ceremonial first dance. Suspicion immediately turns towards Allie’s big brother Greg (Jon Cor, “Love on Safari”), the ex-boyfriend of the bride. Allie begins her own amateur investigation to clear Greg’s name, teaming up with Sam (Carlos PenaVega), the newest detective on the force. Starring Alexa PenaVega, Carlos PenaVega, and Jon Cor.

I’ll tell you when the NEW Picture Perfect Mystery Series will premiere when I post the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries schedule for June 2019. (I’m not sure about the dates yet yet…)
