We went from a one time thing to… maybe doing this on a semi-regular (probably more than semi-regular) basis. Today’s topic was talking about where we got character inspiration for one of each of our characters and talking about creativity and character’s in media (as an aside).

IF we make this a more regular thing, we are looking for a name. There was a name Ansley liked about Book Brunch but that’s already in use for a magazine.

Can our audience come up with a name?

If you saw this email already because you are subscribed to both Ansley and myself, congrats, you’re awesome x 2!

Ansley Ashe Mysteries and I sat down today to talk about the books we’ve either finished or are currently reading. I’ve been in a cozy mindset… and I MAINTAIN each of these is cozy in its own right.

Sit down with a cup of coffee (or tea), toss this on while you clean or work, and learn about some new books! Not going to lie, it came out longer than I anticipated… but it was a great chat! I can’t wait to do more chats with Ansley and would love to chat with other authors too.

Tell us what cozy reads you are snuggling up with during this Midwest cold snap (and if you’re not in the United States Midwest, let us know what the weather has been like fo you lately so we can fawn over weather that is not arctic cold!).

First short story podfic episode. The story "All that glitters" was inspired by and submitted to the weekly Reedsy writing prompts. The story appears on my website, NerdyMomWrites.com.
