I've almost finished my novel called Luka, and decided to make a start on the next one. It has a working title of 'Cozy 2' at present and is a direct follow on from 'Cozy'. I'll change the title when I can think of a better one (The Church?).
This one is also set in Exeter and will be about a ecclesiastical man who is dragged into a world he doesn't fully comprehend. He's seen stuff on the margins, that's for sure, but this...
I'll look for interesting characters too. I dropped Stéphane Gérard into the first Cozy novel, knowing I could use her again later.
I was going to have her married to our new cleric, but I'm having second thoughts. I think the vicar (Let's call him Leonard) may be married to Penelope Richards instead. She is a local landowner and viticulturist.
You can tell Penelope is only a part-time farmer from her outfits. But that blonde hair will have to go. Too confusing. That vicar on the draft cover looks a bit gangster too, doesn't he?
Write On, as they say.
