On November 18, I received this comment from Christine E. Collier, an author of cozy mysteries:
I am very happy I made your cozy Christmas mystery list. My book, Christmas at Cliffhanger Inn, is the third of a four book cozy series about four women writers who form The Writer's Club. My series definitely has a "cozy" description with a writer's theme as the background. The titles are The Writer's Club, Mystery is Our Shadow, Christmas at Cliffhanger Inn, and Something Borrowed, Something Blue. Thank you. Christine E. Collier, author

As I have mentioned a few times, I just went through every author on my cozy mystery authors lists, and tried to categorize them by their professions and/or interests.

Here it is, the Fourth of July, and I still haven't finished Leslie Meier's "Star Spangled Murder." I think that this will be the first time that I didn't finish all of my holiday-themed books on time. I have become totally obsessed with finding the book links for the mystery books on this site. Perhaps once I finish this (rather monumental endeavor) I will be able to relax and enjoy my Cozies, again.
