Cozy...

Have I mentioned that along with knitting and crocheting one of my favorite passtimes is reading?  I LOVE to read.  Lots of different stuff too.  One of my favorite novels ever is The Grapes of Wrath.  I recently read the non-fiction best seller The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks by Rebecca Skloot.  Both very heavy books.  But I love to read "fluff" too.  Waltzing at the Piggly Wiggly by Robert Dalby was a very fun read.  And I have enjoyed many "Cozy Mysteries", too. 
I am currently listening to the audio version of Murder is Binding by Lorna Barrett.  According to her website, the fictional town of Stoneham is "...About five or ten minutes down the road from lovely Milford NH".  Which is MY HOMETOWN!  I spent the first 28 years of my life in Milford.  Which got me thinking about my childhood dream of being a writer.  And then I started to wonder...Can I write a Cozy?  I thin I'm going to try!
