A HUGE Thank You to @irismarchbooks.bsky.social for joining the #12DaysofCozies author chat tonight! For More Information About Irish, Her Website is: irismarchbooks.com

They are such good books! I adore the three main characters. They are all actresses who play a lady detective in shows and movies that was written by a famous author not unlike Agatha Christie. Of course, they hate each other at first but then generational BFFs. I love it! Such good mysteries!

Is there something about yourself, your writing process, upcoming project(s), etc. that you would like to share? #12DaysofCozies @irismarchbooks.bsky.social

My critique partner just got through next novel in the Succulent Sleuth Series. I have a lot of edits to go through for it, but I'm hoping it will be ready in 2026. In the mean time, I've been writing a new first in series with a sassy forester who finds a dead guy in the woods with a client.

You Can Add The Broken Bridge by @irismarchbooks.bsky.social to Your GoodReads Here: www.goodreads.com/book/show/61...

I have either gifted or recommended the Three Dahlias Mysteries by Katy Watson to every reader I know! katywatson.co.uk Is she on BlueSky? Yes! Love you, @katywatsonauthor.bsky.social

If you are a fan or Iris @irismarchbooks.bsky.social, you can also follow her on Instagram: (@) searchingformysteries www.instagram.com/searchingfor...

What is next for you and your "succulent sleuth"? 💚 Do you have a new book in the works? #12DaysofCozies @irismarchbooks.bsky.social

I keep a spreadsheet of the words I write each day. I'm very motivated to not have zeros during the work week. I have weekly word count goals but if I don't meet them, I don't beat myself up.

Do you have a favorite mystery novel that you always recommend? * or a book that influenced your writing? #12DaysofCozies

When I start a mystery, I know who the killer is and who died. I usually have a good idea who other suspects are and a few beats I want the characters to hit along the way. So I have a very rough outline but I am most of a discovery writer. 👩‍💻

If you have any questions about mystery writing, cozy inspiration, holiday fun, etc. please ask! #12DaysofCozies

"Succulent Sleuth" came to me when I was on a run and I knew it was a keeper! At first, I thought it was just the title of the first book, but I decided it was the whole series!
