Elizabeth Eagan-Cox Announces Novelettes for Sale at Barnes and Noble Nook
by BWW News Desk - December 03, 2014
Elizabeth Eagan-Cox is known for her Shannon Delaney cozy mystery series and for her expertise in paranormal research through her book: Ghost Hunters Research Guide To Free Internet Sources. Early in 2014, she made the decision to close the Shannon Delaney series in favor of writing a paranormal mystery collection of novelettes. She explains: 'Departing from writing a full-length novel series was based on health issues, which I have detailed on my blog site. Yet, not wanting to totally abandon the concept of writing a cozy-styled paranormal mystery, I decided on the idea of penning a collection of novelettes. Each novelette is a stand-alone mystery, and each one is positioned in a different location. The first title in the collection is River Ghost, the story takes place in Vicksburg, Mississippi. The newest title is Winter's Ghost and its location is in Tyler, Texas. Each novelette in the collection will reflect a place that is of reference to my ancestry, and I plan to write two novelettes per year.' Elizabeth's novelette collection is published in ebook formats and available world-wide through various retailers. She explains: 'Though the novelette are in all ebook formats, Barnes and Noble has the proprietary arrangement to publish the books in their Nook format. Following the publishing in Nook, the novelettes are retailed in myriad other formats from retailers across the globe. Whatever kind of digital book-reading device a person has, the novelettes can be purchased for that device.'
