In today's episode, we wrap up the 2022 Christmas Season with a cozy Christmas conversation with mystery author Peggy Ehrhart. She is the author of the Knit and Nibble mysteries, and has written several Christmas books for the series. In this episode we talk about her journey to becoming a published author, which includes being a former English professor with a doctorate in Medieval Literature! Then we talk about all the delicious foods one can find in cozy Christmas mysteries, and she walks us through her writing process. Then in the second half of the interview, she takes the Cozy Christmas questionnaire and we find out all about her thoughts on the different Christmas traditions that we know and love. This is a wonderfully cozy way to end the year, and I'm looking forward to beginning season 4 and counting down to Christmas 2023!
Be sure to stick around for January and February - I'll be reading the New Year's set novella, "The Chimes" by Charles Dickens, and I have lots of other fun things planned!

Hello! My guest today is cozy mystery writer Carol J. Perry. She is the author of the Haunted Haven series and the Witch City Mystery series. We have a fun conversation talking about her books. I'd especially recommend her most recent one called "High Spirits", as it takes place at Christmas. Later on, the conversation turns to Christmas and we talk about some of her favorite memories and traditions, what Christmas is like in Florida vs New England, and during the Cozy Christmas Questionnaire, we get side tracked talking about mince meat pie. Carol is living a full and happy life, and she brings an abundance of Christmas cheer... even if she does plot murders for a living!

Dead bodies keep turning up at the North Pole. Good thing that Mrs. Claus is on the case! That's right, I have Liz Ireland, author of the Mrs. Claus Cozy Mystery Series. She's here to talk about her new book "Mrs. Claus and the Evil Elves" and we have a wonderful chat about her book, Christmas, and of course Charles Dickens and a Christmas Carol. Can you guess which of us has more copies of Christmas Carol audiobooks? And just how many are too many?
There's a lot to laugh over in this episode, but we also share some simple ways everyone can bring some Christmas cheer to those who might be in short supply. So come on in and enjoy this cozy conversation I had with Liz Ireland.

S1 E2 / Join Sara for a look at the cozy mystery about a quirky and abrasive (yet loveable) former PR excutive who moves to an English village and just can't quite fit in. It's a cozy mystery with a serving of a fish-out-of-water trope added to the mix.
