    Kathleen Kaska ~ Murder at the Faust ~ Cozy Alchemy Season 3 Ep 4

    A dash of mystery, a sparkle of magic, and all things cozy! Elle interviews fellow cozy authors in this bookish podcast from Authors on the Air Global Radio Network. Today on the podcast, meet Kathleen Kaska, author of several great mystery series! Elle and Kathleen talk about series arcs, historic hotels, ghost stories, and more. (You can also catch Elle in a couple mispronunciations–must’ve been a mischievous ghost at work!) Enjoy! Kathleen’s Bio: I’m a Texas gal. Except for an eighteen-month hiatus living in New York City after college, I lived in the Lone Star State continuously for fifty years. Since then, Texas has been hit and miss—a little hit, but a heck of a lot of miss. There was a time when I thought I would happily die in Austin, Texas. But circumstances and weather—especially weather—changed that. Now, I spend most of the year on Fidalgo Island in Washington State, with a view of the bay and the mountains. When I get homesick, my husband and I listen to Willie Nelson. Soon, we are dancing the two-step, imagining we are at our favorite honky-tonk in Tokio, Texas, where the mayor is believed to be a dog. Who wouldn’t miss that? Check out my award-winning mystery series: The Sydney Lockhart Mystery Series, set in the 1950s, the Kate Caraway Animal-Rights Mystery Series, and The Classic Triviography Mystery Series, which includes The Sherlock Holmes Quiz Book.

She has also published spin-off series including Pomegranate Cafe Romance and Marine Magic, as well as numerous short mysteries in anthologies. When not writing, Elle is an active member of Sisters in Crime and Mystery Writers of America. As a historian and educator, she believes in the value of stories as a mirror for complicated realities. She currently lives in New Jersey with a grumpy tortoise and a three-legged cat. Find free stories and more at ellehartford.com, and back episodes of Cozy Alchemy at ellehartford.substack.com.
