Interview with the Author
Q - Can you tell us more about your Diane Dimbleby series of books? What are they about?
A - The books concern the adventures of Diane Dimbleby, a retired school teacher who is now a writer of mystery novels. She lives in the quiet English village of Apple Mews - a place where nothing should ever really happen, but of course murder is never very far away and Diane is always compelled to investigate.
Q - Who would this book appeal to, who is your target market?
A - Women between 35 - 65 but anyone really who loves whodunit books.
Q - For those of us who are unfamiliar with the term "Cozy Mystery" what does it mean?
A - A cozy mystery is a mystery novel without the graphic sex or violence that one might expect from some whodunit mysteries. It is a very popular genre at the moment with many cozy mystery free kindle books currently on Amazon.
Q - What other stories have you written? Can you give us a brief overview of some of your stories?
A - I have written a novella called "Murder in the Inn" which has a cozy mystery small town setting but set on a small Canadian Island. What they have in common with the Diane Dimbleby books though is that they are all whodunit books.
