Welcome to the third episode of Neighborhood Bookstore, an author interview podcast. Each month I’ll talk to an author about a book from their back catalog, then take a look at what they have coming up next.
This time around, co-host Craig Duster and I chat with cozy mystery author Abby Collette about her novel A Deadly Inside Scoop.
In this episode:
• Learning the rules of writing cozy mysteries
• The mysteries and charms of Chagrin Falls, Ohio
• Does Crewse’s Creamery really exist?
• The similarities and differences between indie publishing and mainstream publishing
• Tackling a book series
• Creating characters that are educated and professional
• Writing a book in 30 days, and teaching others how to do it too
• Transitioning from being an attorney and economics professor to full-time author
• Receiving monthly checks from Amazon versus earning out an advance from Penguin
• What makes a thriller?
