• Janice Peacock is a cozy mystery author who specializes in craft and hobby mysteries. She loves to write about artists who find new ways to live their lives and perhaps catch a criminal or two in the process. While working in a glass studio with several colorful and quirky artists, she was inspired to write the Glass Bead Mystery Series. The Ruby Shaw Mysteries, which are set in a small hillside mining town, were inspired by her trips to Jerome, Arizona, and Jacksonville, Oregon.

When Janice isn’t writing about amateur detectives, she wields a 2,500-degree torch to melt glass and create one-of-kind beads and jewelry. She lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her husband and an undisclosed number of cats.

Hi Mary,

High Strung was initially self-published in 2014. I signed with Booktrope, an independent published based in Seattle, last spring. The first step in working with the publisher was to re-release High Strung, which happened at the end of August. The second book, A Bead in the Hand, was also published by Booktrope and was released on Dec 5.

All the best,
Janice(less)

Hi Lisa!

I just finished the book over the weekend. I've liked all of the other Flavia novels, but this one, I am sad to say, I didn't care for. A little too "Harry Potter-ish" in the big castle, secret missions, teachers with grudges, etc. (I should add that I am a huge Harry Potter series fan.) I won't spoil the book for you, but I have hope for the next books in the series.

All the best,
Janice(less)

Time for a Blog Tour!

In case you missed it: I released the fourth book in the Glass Bead Mystery Series, To Bead or Not to Bead, at the end of June.



And that means it’s time for a tour. I love doing blog tours!  What the heck is a blog tour, you ask?  It’s like a book tour, but instead of visiting bookstores, I get to stay home in my bunny slippers and write posts for other people’s blogs and be interviewed by inte

“We just have to sort through the junk. You know, like organising a jumbled box of beads. All we have to do is put each piece in its proper place, and we'll be able to see what we have.”
Janice Peacock, High Strung
