Eva Belle:
About Eva: Hello, I am author Eva Belle, and I love a ghost story told in a cozy setting. I write a special kind of cozy mystery that I call an autumn cozy paranormal mystery, because I enjoy all things autumn and Halloween is my favorite holiday. My autumn cozy paranormal mysteries are based in the sleepy town of Cape Mystic, Washington, which is located on the shores of the Puget Sound. My books are a delightful mixture of genuine characters with a quirky streak, a town with a haunted past, and lots of cupcakes and coffee. If you like to curl up on a rainy day with a hot drink and a good book, then I’ve got the perfect cozy paranormal mystery for you with an autumn twist. If this sounds interesting to you, then please sign up for my newsletter at https://evabelleauthor.com/ to learn about my upcoming releases. My next book, Harvest and Haunt, will be available soon in October 2021.
Best, Eva Belle

Molly Fitz
About Molly: Molly Fitz is the quirky, cozy mystery pen name of USA Today bestselling author, Melissa Storm. While she can't technically talk to animals, she and her doggie best friend, Sky Princess, have deep and very animated conversations as they navigate their days. Add to that, five more dogs, a snarky feline, comedian husband, and diva daughter, and you can pretty much imagine how life looks in Casa de Fitz.

Elle hartford:
About Elle: Hi everyone! I'm a new author and proud member of the Cozy Mystery Book Club. I grew up in the Pacific Northwest writing fantasy, and today I live in New Jersey working at a museum in order to keep my tortoise and three-legged cat in the style to which they're accustomed. Even though I write mysteries now, I've found that I'm basically incapable of putting pen to paper without incorporating the fantasy I love. Paranormal cozy often means awesome witches or psychic heroines -- well, for me, it means putting that quirky small town in the familiar world of fairytales. In my short stories, you'll meet Red (yes, like Little Red Riding Hood) and her friends as they solve mysteries in the fantastical world "Beyond," where magic is real and sometimes deadly. Red is an alchemist (because when you're danger-prone, it helps to have a sturdy pair of lab gloves and some tricks up your sleeve), so I'm calling my new series "The Alchemical Tales." Some of those are available in anthologies now! Through my newsletter, I'm releasing a series of stories called "The Carousel Capers" for fans of mystery and mythological horses. Stay tuned for news about the novel, too!

Astoria Wright:
About Astoria: Hi everyone! I'm a cozy author and your host for A Frightfully Cozy Book Fair! I'm also the owner of The Cozy Mystery Library. My dream is to make the cozy mystery library the go-to resource for cozy mystery authors and readers alike. While I enjoy cozies, I also love the paranormal! I have two series I like to call cozy fantasies, because they're equally both fantasy stories and mysteries! The first is The Faerie Apothecary Mysteries, about an island town where your just as likely to have a leprechaun neighbor as you are to have a human one. Their peaceful existence is threatened when a string of murders start to happen across town. The second series, A Witch's Thrift Shop Mystery, features a regular woman who follows a black cat down an alley way and finds herself on a hidden street full of witches! The books will be on sale at the fair! Hope to see you there!
