Vannetta Chapman, Maya Corrigan, Colette London, & Rose Pressey – Four Author Additions to the Cozy Mystery Site

April 9, 2015

I have just added four new Cozy Mystery authors to the Cozy Mystery site. Some of you who are new may wonder where I get the authors I post on my site. I get them from Cozy Mystery readers who have enjoyed their work and want to make sure other Cozy Mystery readers know about them.

Vannetta Chapman, a former teacher with a Master’s Degree in English, has worked as a pianist, church secretary, and an adjunct professor of English Literature. Chapman focuses heavily on faith in her works, and is the author of the Shipshewana Amish Mystery Series, the Amish Village Mystery Series, and the Jacobs Family Mystery Series.

Maya Corrigan is the author of the Five-Ingredient Mystery Series, starring Val Deniston, manager of a fitness club café, the Cool Down Café. (This Cozy Mystery series includes recipes.) Corrigan has taught college classes in writing and literature, designed online learning courses, and has written nonfiction. She lives near Washington D.C. >>> so she’s able to visit the Chesapeake Bay area setting of her series whenever she wants.

Colette London is the author of the Chocolate Whisperer Mystery Series starring Haydon Mundy Moore, a traveling chocolatier, luxury consultant, and amateur sleuth. (This Cozy Mystery series contains recipes.)

Rose Pressey pens multiple mystery series, many of which feature a paranormal element of some kind. Her best selling Haunted Vintage Mystery Series, features Cookie Chanel (the owner of a vintage clothing store) as its sleuth. Pressey also writes the Haunted Tour Guide Mystery Series, the Chase Charley Mystery Series, the Trash to Treasure Crafting Mystery Series, the Haunted Renovation Mystery Series, and the Maggie, PI Mystery Series.

Upcoming Television Mystery Movies for April 2015 Has Been Updated

April 6, 2015

The Hallmark Movies and Mysteries site has finally put up the rest of their schedule for April, which means I just updated my Upcoming Television Mystery Movies for April 2015 entry. April will be a wonderful month for Cozy Mystery lovers! They are going to be premiering several Cozy Mystery television movies:

On Saturday, April 4 they premiered A Bone to Pick: An Aurora Teagarden Mystery, based on the Charlaine Harris mystery series of that same name. If you missed it, don’t worry! They will be airing it many times. The next showing is tomorrow, April 7 at 8:00 AM (central). Go set up your DVR now!

Saturday, April 11 will bring us a new Garage Sale television mystery movie. Garage Sale Mystery: The Deadly Room will air at 8:00 PM (central). These Garage Sale mystery movies are based on Suzi Weinert’s Garage Sale Mystery Series. So far there have been two Cozy books (Garage Sale Stalker and Garage Sale Diamonds) and this will be the third movie in the series. If you haven’t seen the previous two Garage Sale movies, they will air right before this movie premieres. Garage Sale Mystery at 4:00 PM and Garage Sale Mystery: All That Glitters at 6:00 PM – central.

Saturday, May 2 will be a Cozy Mystery television movie bonanza day! They will be playing a lot of Cozy Mystery movies, including one based on a Mary Higgins Clark mystery. Murder, She Baked: A Chocolate Chip Cookie Mystery, based on Joanne Fluke‘s Hannah Swensen Mystery Series will premiere at 8:00 PM (Central).

Since I was finally able to complete the April 2015 television mystery movies entry, I thought I would tell you so that you can take a look at the finalized list:

Carolyn Haines’ Bone to Be Wild: One New Halloween-Themed Cozy Mystery Coming May 2015

April 6, 2015

So here we are again, ready to discuss the great upcoming holiday mystery releases… Well… “release”, since we only have one entry this month, but it should be a good one!

Carolyn Haines will be releasing the second Halloween-themed novel in her long-running Sarah Booth Delaney Mystery Series, Bone to Be Wild. Sarah’s relationship with long-time fiance Graf has come to a sudden end, leaving Sarah feeling like she needs to hit the town and get back into a better state of mind, and what better than the Halloween ball her old friend Scott is holding in New Orleans? But when Scott’s band is threatened and the bartender at his club is gunned down, Sarah will need to once again get back to sleuthing to help make sure the party will go off without a hitch!

I have to admit I get too excited when I see a holiday Cozy Mystery book! I have written before about our two seasons down here in San Antonio, Texas. We pretty much have hot humidity or a few months of pleasant to cool humidity. I miss the four seasons! However a holiday Cozy Mystery will usually help me feel more in the fall or winter mood. Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s are my very favorite Cozy Mystery holiday themes.
