Cozy Mysteries on The Isle of Man with Diana Xarissa
When you can't visit a place you love, the next best thing is writing about it.
Prolific author (with several pen names) Diana Xarissa joins me for a chat about her cozy mysteries set on the Isle of Man. Diana lived on the island at one time and uses her Aunt Bessie series as an excuse to go back and visit in her imagination.
You'll hear Diana and I touch on her many series of mysteries, and other books. This is a writer who gets her work done!
In the introduction I mention that I am thrilled to be back into podcasting. This episode is the fifth since I relaunched the show. I am loving the new format of having an author read to us for the first half of the show. And I hope you're enjoying it too. Let me know! Reviews and ratings on your favorite podcast app are always appreciated and they help the show to find new listeners who are avid mystery readers, just like you.
This week's mystery author
Diana Xarissa published her first cozy mystery in 2014. Aunt Bessie Assumes, set on the Isle of Man, was just the first of what has become her most successful series. The twenty-third book in the series, Aunt Bessie Wonders, was released in January. There will be three more books in the series in 2020, culminating in the final book, Aunt Bessie Zeroes In, which will be released in October.
In addition to the Aunt Bessie series, Diana writes the Markham Sisters Cozy Mystery novellas, which are set in the fictional village of Doveby Dale in Derbyshire. While they are mysteries, there hasn’t been a murder in the village yet. Diana also writes the Isle of Man Ghostly Cozy series, which features an American protagonist who happens to share her apartment with her dead aunt’s ghost. She also writes two romance series, one set on the Isle of Man and the other set in a fictional town in the state of New York.
