In the background, a wooden table has index cards with notes written on them and a mug of cocoa on a miniature hotplate. Two books are overlaid on that. One says You Can Write for Children, with an illustration of a woman seated and writing in a notebook. The other says Advanced Plotting, with colorful smoke coming from a book. The author's name is Chris Eboch.

    Okay, when voice recognition hears "mystery for dogs" instead of "mystery for adults," that's funny. But when I said "that is" and it heard "fat ass," that could get me in trouble!

    A book cover has the title Something Deadly on Desert Drive in large letters. A tan vase is falling, spilling water, in the foreground. The background is an Arizona scene of a saguaro cactus and mesas, with a lot of green. Text to the left of the cover says: “I could barely put it down.” “This series engages on so many levels.” “I love the characters in this series.”

    Two pieces of good news this week! The first 3 Accidental Detective humorous mystery novels will come out in audio! PLUS HarperCollins/Harlequin contracted for the mass market paperback rights of something Shady at Sunshine Haven. (Mass-market is the small paperback size. Right now they're in trade paperback.) These options should bring the books to more readers. I don't know yet when they'll be out though. @bookstodon
