New Anthology "A Cup of Cozy 3" Out Soon

Our family loves to watch Christmas movies. We look forward to the tradition of being together cuddled up by the fire, laughing at the antics of "Home Alone" or shedding a tear or two at the conclusion of "A Christmas Carol." That's how we at Cozy Mystery Magazine feel about our "A Cup of Cozy" holiday anthologies.

This year's theme for "A Cup of Cozy 3" is Destination Christmas: Short Holiday Mysteries and Recipes. Linda Kozar writes a story taking place in Turkey, and my setting is San Francisco. I'll save the other settings for a later post.

As we take time to enter the busiest time of the year, I hope we'll find time to enjoy the journey. Being with friends and family while celebrating fall, Thanksgiving, and Christmas is a special reminder of the abundant blessings God has poured out all year.

Cheers and Happy Holidays!

The Holidays Approach!

By Nancy Jill Thames

Are you ready for the holidays?

Thanksgiving dinner menus made? How about your Christmas gift list? So far I know what I'm making for Thanksgiving, and gifts for loved ones will either be cold, hard cash or Omaha Steaks goodies. Oh, and to ready for the holidays, I need to have ordered fruitcakes from Collin Street Bakery for my mom and me. 

Perhaps you're wondering what those little teddy bears sitting on chocolate covered cookies have to do with this post. It's simple, really. The recipe for these easy holiday treats is included in our new holiday anthology, "A CUP OF COZY." 

The book is our free gift to our readers here on COZY MYSTERY MAGAZINE, and includes brand new titles like, "A Cup of Christmas Tea" by Linda P. Kozar, "Hardy's Christmas Triumph" by S. Dionne Moore, and "The Christmas Candy Mystery" by C.L. Ragsdale. 

There are sneak peeks at some mysteries from our COZY MYSTERY MAGAZINE authors including new titles by Linda P. Kozar - "That Wasn't Chicken," Deborah Malone's - "Terror on Tybee Island" and C.L. Ragsdale's new book - "Chasing Lady Midnight." All great stories for your reading pleasure.

Traci Tyne Hilton has included the first chapter of her book - "Good, Clean Murder." I've contributed chapter one of "Waiting for Santa" and the bonus recipe for Cheery Chocolate Teddy Bear Cookies.
