Ellen Byron | 26 comments I have to be honest - Goodreads has always kind of terrified and confounded me. I joined this and another cozy group but never knew how to find them or engage. I just did a webinar that really helped me. It's baby steps! But I wanted to take a moment to thank all the readers here who've supported my Cajun Country Mystery and new Catering Hall Mystery series. (Written under the pen name, "Maria DiRico." Like I said in a dedication in one of my books, without you, my books would just be a file in my computer. So... THANK YOU!!

MadameZelda | 651 comments I love your Cajun Country series and am current on the series. I was unaware of the pen name Maria DiRico and I'll have to look up the books!

Update: I did read the Catering Hall book! I also listened to the audio at the same time.

L J | 715 comments Cozies are a favorite listen for me so I'm delighted that several Ellen Byron Cajun Country books and the first Maria DiRico Catering Hall book are available as audio.

Ellen Byron | 26 comments Thank you so much! I just checked and all my CCMs are available on audio except for the one that doesn't release until 9/8, MURDER IN THE BAYOU BONEYARD. Halloween-themed! I made a video for it this weekend, just for fun... https://lumen5.com/user/ellen-byron/-...

(We'll see if that link works. If not, you can find it on YouTube.)

Thanks again!

I also thank you for the audio versions of these books. I have permanent double vision and have to resort to audiobooks. I still miss the written word and so I listen and read along -- as best I can.
