What I'm Currently Reading

I write the Eastwind Witches paranormal cozy mystery series. It follows Nora Ashcroft as she settles into her new life as a Fifth Wind witch in the paranormal town of Eastwind, where she gets suckered into using her psychic powers to solve mysteries.
I think a good story has intrigue, humor, and a nice sprinkling of romance, so that's how I write my books.
You'll learn a little more about me and the series through the week, but to start off, I thought I'd introduce you to Grim, Nora's familiar (the goofball in the picture). He used to be a hellhound, but then he died and came back to life as a - you guessed it - grim. He's snarky, eager to rush headlong into danger, and bacon obsessed. (He also loves a good belly rub, but don't tell anyone.)
If you want to check out the series, there are two places to start:
1. Read book 1, Crossing Over Easy:

UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07B425B2T
2: Get a free novella by joining the Cozy Coven, my reader group: www.cozycoven.com
Don't hesitate to say hello and ask me any questions you might have; I believe that's the whole point of this. ☺️

Hillary will be taking over the group from Friday 11th January until Friday 18th January, when we'll be joined by a new cozy mystery author in residence. This is a brilliant opportunity for cozy mystery fans to get up close and personal with the author and to ask them any questions you like, about the characters, series, life as an author, and inspiration behind the books, so please don't be shy.
A Little Bit About Hillary Avis
I write cozy culinary mysteries and I’m so pleased to be the guest author this week.
A little about me—I live in Eugene, Oregon, with my husband and two daughters, ages almost-13 and just-turned-6. You can imagine the noise levels...especially when you add in two dogs, two cats, and five chickens that just started laying (OMG the egg songs they sing). The fish doesn’t make much noise, luckily.
Oh, and we just signed an adoption contract for a 95-pound Great Pyrenees rescue dog. You know, because we don’t have enough going on.
I’ve been a reader and a writer as long as I can remember. My childhood was full of Nancy Drew and Agatha Christie (and some Narnia and dragon books, too), so I guess I’ve always liked books full of sprawling old mansions with secret rooms and rusty keys that open hidden doors and plucky women who go down into the basement to investigate the strange noise.
In the past, I’ve written historical and fantasy novels, but they’ve never seen the light of day. It wasn’t until I tried my hand at a mystery that I knew what I wanted to do for the rest of my life. I started publishing cozy mysteries last spring and I haven’t looked back—once I discovered the genre, it was like everything clicked and I knew what I wanted to BE. It only took me until I turned 40, ha ha. Well, my mom always said our family was full of late bloomers. The real joke here is that my former job was as a career counselor.
Let me tell you a bit about my books. I have two series right now, the Neela Durante farm mysteries and the Death du Jour culinary mysteries.
Neela is the character that I’ll always love the most, because she’s the sleuth who showed me I am a mystery writer at heart. I also drew from my personal experience to write her; I earned my undergraduate degree in biology, and Neela is an geneticist who works for a big corporate seed company. Not the typical cozy profession! But she uses her paycheck to support her family’s small organic farm, including her four sisters. Of course, things aren’t very easy for her in the first book, Kernel of Doubt…her colleague is murdered, her sleuthing jeopardizes her job right when her family needs the money the most, her husband files for divorce, and her sweet beagle, Molly, refuses to use the dog door! Luckily, Neela has some allies to help her solve her many problems, including the quirky tech guy at work and her soon-to-be-ex husband who happens to work in law enforcement, as well as her own PhD-level smarts.
I’ve only written one book in that series so far, but I’m looking forward to writing another one this spring/summer! I already have a story idea and a cover, so it’s definitely going to happen.
The Death du Jour mysteries are a culinary series that follows an aspiring chef as she works toward owning her own restaurant. Her quirky friends are also in the restaurant industry—her best friend and roommate is a sous chef at a French restaurant, and another character runs a bakery called the Honor Roll. “On a roll,” get it? I do love puns. The book titles in this series are all puns based around types of soup…and let me tell you, I have a LOOONG list of punny soups stashed away. I could write this series for YEARS and never run out of titles. #authorproblems
Book 2 in the Death du Jour series, Rest in Split Peas, actually released today!
(If you’d like a taste of soup and suspense by the sea, along with some yummy soup recipes, you can grab it here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07KYDQ4NG)
To celebrate, Crime Chowder (A Death du Jour Mystery #1) is FREEEEEE today and tomorrow!
https://www.amazon.com/Crime-Chowder-Death-Jou…/…/B07K4VPLPM
So…if you've made it to the bottom of this encyclopedia entry, any questions about what it’s like writing culinary or farm mysteries? Or maybe you have advice about how to introduce a giant dog named Bruno to a houseful of sassy small pets?

So here we are, a little something that I hope will meet both of those suggestions.....a giveaway where the winner each month will be chosen at random. All you have to do to enter, is to leave a little review or recommendation for a cozy mystery book that you've read and enjoyed and think that others might like to read too. You can leave your review in the comments section of this page, or on the giveaway post on Facebook or Instagram.
This is something I plan to run every month, and you have the whole of the month to give you time to leave your review. The winner will be announced on the last Friday of each month.
The prize will be a book box containing cozy mystery themed items, connected to that month's theme. So for January's giveaway book box, the theme of the box will be paranormal cozies. (Your review can be any theme of book, but it must be a cozy mystery).
I hope that you will have a lot of fun with this giveaway and get to pick up some great swag and personal items from authors in the process.
