A paranormal cozy mystery author writes mystery stories that blend supernatural elements with lighthearted, character-driven storytelling. These stories focus on clever puzzles, strong community settings, and engaging characters rather than graphic violence or dark themes.
The “paranormal” aspect includes witches, vampires, ghosts, magical objects, or other supernatural elements that drive the mystery, while the “cozy” tone keeps the story accessible, comforting, and often humorous. The crime typically happens off-page, and the emphasis is on deduction, relationships, and uncovering the truth.
As a paranormal cozy mystery author, I balance mystery structure, genre expectations, and world-building while maintaining a warm, readable tone that keeps readers coming back for a series—not just a single book.
