Helen Phifer ~ The Vanishing Bookstore ~ Cozy Alchemy Season 2 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. Today on the podcast, meet Helen Phifer, author of The Vanishing Bookstore! Elle and Helen talk about writing a cozy book after writing thrillers, the community involved in writing a book, the fun of not knowing what will happen next, and of course, setting a book in Salem. Happy listening! Helen’s Bio: Helen Phifer is a bestselling crime writer of nineteen books including the Annie Graham, Lucy Harwin, Beth Adams and Morgan Brookes Detective series. Helen lives in a small town in Cumbria, surrounded by miles of coastline and only a short drive from the beautiful Lake District. She loves reading books that make the hairs on the back of her neck stand on end and is eternally grateful to Stephen King, Dean Koontz, James Herbert and Graham Masterton for scaring her senseless in her teenage years.

The award-winning first book in her Alchemical Tales series, Beauty and the Alchemist, finds amateur sleuth Red mixed up with murderous beasts and moody beauties, and a set of missing books besides!

For other writers and authors looking into “wide” indie publishing, Elle offers coaching as well as the Beyond Writing blog (ellehartford.substack.com) with how-tos and resources.
