Want to write a cozy mystery series? Let's work on it together! This video series will take you through the whole process of beginning your cozy mystery series: choosing the hook, creating the sleuth and her world, and even starting the first book!
Today we'll talk about how to come up with plot premises that work with your hook. We'll talk about the difference between a hook-driven cozy and a hook-flavored cozy, and why you might want to choose one over the other.

Watch this series from the start! kzread.info/head/PL3KL6Jqx65DjZcAKroahZ3eP5mo-D2u1S
Oh, Jane - thank you for these. I've had an idea for a story scribbled in a notebook for weeks, but after watching your first two videos in this series, I actually went into a Google doc and made hardcore plot notes. You might reform this pantser yet!

Right?!?!
I just adore this channel!!!!
Thank you for this! I've got an idea for a Cozy mystery and have managed to come up with a unique hook and at least seven titles for it, but figuring out the plots for each of them has been a struggle. Your technique is simple but amazing! I'm going to start doing this right away and hopefully I'll have the first (and possibly second) book ready for early next year!!

Glad it was helpful!
I know comments help channels. So here is my comment for this episode. Pretty sure due to the Atom Punk 1950s setting it is more hook driven but can also be switched to a more hook flavor if needed.
Thanks Jane! This makes so much sense!

Awesome, Jes, thank you! I am so glad it helped!
My Vampire game is set in the city of Miami, in modern times. The Vampire Prince has been destroyed. The Vampire players work for the Prince and they were ruled. The players will have the options of ignoring the murder, trying to solve the murder, or trying to cover-up the murder. There will be other vampires in the city that will push them to make each decision.
Really nice to see how to plan it out in simple to follow steps.
