Hey Shelvies! In this week’s episode, we are joined by Olivia Blacke, author of the quirky, unconventional cozy mystery series Record Shop Mysteries and Brooklyn Murder Mysteries. Although Olivia started out writing fantasy novels, she wrote her first cozy mystery after attending a wedding and imagining a bridezilla bride being murdered at her own wedding. Although the book landed her a dream agent, it unfortunately was never published. But she persevered, and when opportunity knocked for a new story at another publisher, she was ready! Stay tuned to the end of the podcast for a peek at Olivia’s color-coded index card outlining method which will make your author heart sing! Come have some fun with us as you listen to our captivating stories and then share your own!
