And I know what you mean about humor and playfulness--I gravitate towards that as a writer, too. Everything I work on turns into a comedy, as a result. XDHeather R.

I like cozy mysteries, too, but I'm not a fan of most other mysteries, except maybe old Sherlock Holmes mysteries. I seem to meet a lot of people who think I like "classics" or "literary" authors because I'm a teacher. I do read some books that fit in those categories, but it's not where I camp out. :) Tyreanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11527093820689097636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-260356366721241015.post-47572328053776723462019-06-05T16:14:55.588-07:002019-06-05T16:14:55.588-07:00They go well together!They go well together!Gwen Gardnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13132836346305559246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-260356366721241015.post-7874929589163662372019-06-05T15:01:32.234-07:002019-06-05T15:01:32.234-07:00I like mixing mystery and supernatural elements.

Which is why now I write horror. I'm all for justice reigning, but my characters can be a bit ambiguous on the good/bad aspect. <br /><br />And yes, people have been surprised when they've read my work. I get this sideways glance and "so... how exactly is it that you're so knowledgable about dismembering and disposing of bodies?" I apparently have more knowledge than folks are comfortable with on exotic poisons, too. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-260356366721241015.post-11274477457847117892019-06-05T10:15:39.323-07:002019-06-05T10:15:39.323-07:00I write fantasy but love to read cozy's!I write fantasy but love to read cozy's!H.
