Would love to see more cozy mysteries! Whether it’s a traditional one a la Amanda Flower or something a bit more in the vein of DIAL A FOR AUNTIES. I love bookish or cooking premises, something that is lightly paranormal (think witches or a friendly ghost.) and an animal companion! #mswl

Seriously, creative folks: Don't be afraid to let people know your stuff is out there for them, or worry that "now is not the time for that." People are stressed and freaked out and looking for the things that will give them a moment of rest and joy. It is EXACTLY the time for what we do. Tell them.
