Ask the Author—Slide into my DMs

Welcome back, darlings, to another exciting episode of Reality Writes! In today’s episode, “Slide into My DMs,” we’re braving the crisp January air and taking our conversation outdoors. This week, we’re diving into some of the best questions you’ve sent me via social media DMs. From crafting floor plans for fictional settings to the nitty-gritty of private investigation research, we’re covering it all. Ever wondered what it’s like to walk the charming streets of Ashland, the hometown that inspires my Bakeshop Mysteries? I’ll be sharing travel tips, personal insights, and, of course, some behind-the-scenes magic. I’ll also let you in on a little secret—my curated playlists! Music is such a big part of my writing process, and I can’t wait to share how these soundtracks help bring my characters to life. Whether you’re curious about writing cozy mysteries, want to hear more about the real-life inspirations behind my stories, or are looking for exclusive recipes straight from Torte’s kitchen, this episode is brimming with tips, laughs, and bookish fun. Oh, and don’t miss the sneak peeks into upcoming projects—we might just have some surprises in store for you! So, grab your coziest blanket, your favorite drink, and settle in.
